If we do not solve our own problem on such issues, ICANN will be having a difficult time implementing any proposed strategy due the continues conflicts and this, as already well said would be shame for Africa in the eye of the global public. The ICANN Africa strategy is just the beginning of
a </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><span><span style="font-size:16px;">journey and its legitimacy and success only depends on continuous support by all Africans, otherwise it will be just another failed strategy.</span></span></div><div style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: garamond, 'new york', times, serif; font-style: normal; "><span><span style="font-size:16px;"><br></span></span></div><div style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: garamond, 'new york', times, serif; font-style: normal; "><span><span style="font-size:16px;">I will send my thoughts on the Development Fund, Fatimata.
