You decided to set a bad precedence to appeal almost all our decisions and till date to God be the glory NONE of those appeals were ever successful instead, you and your group have now made AFRINIC more dysfunctional than ever before. Prosperity has been fair to us. At the very least, I can come out to BOLDLY say that the appeal committee that was in place even before we became the Co-chair NEVER overturned ANY of our decisions. We had no influence on the appeal committee, unlike what you and your friends are now doing. This to me is a clear testimony that we did the right thing. We now have a situation where Noah is now assuming the role of complainant and judge at the same time. This you still have to do long after your kangaroo process. What a shame!!!. Even the kangaroo process never said we did follow the the PDP rather they had to invent a new word just to satisfy the target you gave them. You and your friends have now manipulated the process (against the PDP) to bring in the so-called "co-chairs" we have no problem with that as it was a relief for us but is that what you call a consensus or did that process followed the "Norm" ?. If Yes, was it in any way different from what we did? When it suits you, you come out to say the consensus is not a game of numbers, but when it is against you, you come out to say the process was manipulated. If everyone had decided to follow your exact methods, hell would have let loose cos it only takes about 5-6 individuals to manipulate the system as you did (a story for another day). Things have now gone from bad to worse even for the PDP process. All decisions are now being appealed thanks to your precedence, and the appeal committee is now being turned into a tool just to make sure that you and your small group of friends can fully manipulate the entire system.</span></p><p style="color:rgb(14,16,26);background:transparent;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="background:transparent;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"> </span></p><p style="color:rgb(14,16,26);background:transparent;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="background:transparent;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">Let me be clear once again.
