Hi Nii,<div><br></div><div>There is no issue to keep you awake..yes I came into the global scene through nomination in Dec 2004 and that is all and have since been keen to join in to see <.africa> becoming a reality. me being as a Beneficiary and User - not in the business.of making money but in the policy formulation.</div>
<div><br></div><div>What has poisoned .africa is as you know very well is when individual benefit became a priority - and for free or through negative influence and to the large extent with lies! The poison is ego and money - that is what all the arguments and unfair fight is for. This has gone too far away from the fair competition in business - I believe there is evidence for this based on the way the battle (not competition) has been going.</div>
<div><br></div><div>May I state that I do not intend Calvin or anyone else who does not know me well label me since I believe that what I am doing and standing for is fairness without favour for thing one has or can do - only fairness and truth lasts.</div>
<div><br></div><div>
Lastly, what I have seen is a number of conflicts and blowing own trumpets while blowing others candles to make theirs brighter? </div><div><br></div><div>Let us be straight in what we do and not to sell Africa cheaply:-((( </div>
<div><br></div><div>Ooops! did I say the truth here?</div><div><br></div><div>Warm regards</div><div><br></div><div>Yassin <br>
