[rpd] Nomcom request for feedback (Anthony Ubah)

Ubah Anthony Ikechukwu ubah.tonyiyke at gmail.com
Thu Jun 6 11:18:36 UTC 2019 

Hello NOMCOM,

It's unfortunate that having volunteered and applied in due time for the
vacant chair, I still failed to make the shortlist.

The duration of request for additional information was rather brief and ill
timed as it was a holiday period.

I urge NOMCOM to seriously re-evaluate and reconsider their processes to
accommodate all candidates with genuine interest.

I will appreciate a prompt feedback and expedite resolution of my/our
candidacy.

Kind regard,
