Dear Members,

We are pleased to inform our Members that the December 2016 version of the

Hello Chair,

Above and beyond the registration of the updated company bylaws, I would
like to know where we stand in terms of accountability.

I would like to know more about the outcome of the accountability review
and the votes on resolutions that followed.

Ref: AFRINIC's board strongly condemnation of Internet shutdowns by some
government which I take was directed towards what has been happening in
(Cameroon). Can we know if there has been any prior communication from the
AFRINIC board to the government in question prior and after the
condemnation?

Does the AFRINIC board have such strategies that can support the
organsation in case its at loss in terms of revenue due to Internet
shutdown?

What is the status of the GC and its relationship with the AFRINIC's board
in terms of transparency and guidance?

Cheers,

Noah

PS: If we want the governments to be held accoutable, we ought to accept to
be held accountable too by AFRINIC stakeholders, resource members and the
community at large.
