[rpd] Call for interest for PDWG chairs closed & Way forward

[JORDI PALET MARTINEZ]

Hi Daniel,

 

As said before, if the policy comes back to the table, either because of the appeal, or because it is not ratified, or whatever, what we do then to ensure neutrality? The PDP doesn’t allow the withdrawal of a policy author, we could accept it, but we don’t know if the author is still behind the curtains. Also, the PDP doesn’t allow one of the co-chairs to self-recuse on the decisions regarding that policy.

 

I understand about the point 3, but I learned across the last months, that we can’t trust anything, very unfortunately. We need to see it.

 

 

Regards,

Jordi

Dear Jordi,

I disagree with you on the candidate that has a policy in discussion to be disqualified. That is a n-no, rather the candidate should provide a statement of withdrawing is authorship of the policy and that should suffice.

on item 3, the failing is coming from the Secretariat, and they are the ones drawing our attention to it. So I want to believe they have done well here.

Aside the above, If others are proven to correct as per your comments, then I also agree that such candidates stand disqualified.

 

Simply

Daniel

Hi,

 

I’ve several issues on this email and also looking into the data provided by the candidates in their CVs.

 

1.       If I understood correctly, one of the candidates used fake data for his nominator. If that’s true, that is clearly a disqualifying factor, not only because there is no a member support, but also because we can’t trust on anyone providing fake data.

2.       Has the staff verified all the nominators so this is not happening in other cases?

3.       I fail to see how the form has worked fine for several days, and then didn’t worked on the last date. Can you provide the logs of the server and email server to verify that fact in a 100% trustable way?

4.       I see at least one candidate with a policy still in discussion, under appeal, so that should disqualify that nomination.

5.       I see a couple of candidates which doesn’t have any experience in network operations or anything similar, so that would also disqualify them?

 

I don’t think we need to wait for the NomCom, because this can be very easily done by the secretariat, at least some of the points are totally neutral and transparent, such as the verification of the nominators, the verification of the form failure, verification of the data provided in the CVs, etc.

 

This will allow to move on at least a couple of days in case the NomCom need to take a decision of who is qualified to run or not.

 

Regards,

Jordi

1.      List of nominees

AFRINIC is in receipt of  six (6) nominations which are as follows :-

1.Wijdane Goubi from Morocco, Country of Residence: Morocco  

2. Anthony Ikechukwu Ubah from Nigeria, Country of Residence: Canada 

3. Vincent Ngundi from Kenya, Country of Residence: Kenya

5. Darwin Da Costa from Angola, Country of Residence: Angola

1.                  Additional elements

1.                 Nominee - Ibeanusi Elvis

This nomination which was received as a self-nomination appeared to have been made later than the deadline. This was due to a back-end issue on self-nomination forms that was addressed during the day today. We confirm that the nomination has been posted on the system within the deadline.  

1.      Nominee - Widjane Goubi

In regard to  the nominee,  Wijdane Goubi, kindly note that on the 5th of April 2021, AFRINIC has been informed by an email sent from the designated nominator on the nomination paper that the latter never provided its support to the said nomination.  He has therefore requested AFRINIC to delete all its associated personal data in connection thereof. In this respect, and  to comply with the Mauritian Data Protection Act 2017, AFRINIC has a duty to cause such deletion forthwith and you are accordingly informed of the same. “

 

3. Tenure of Office

We would like to remind the Working Group that  as stated in Section 3.3 of the Consolidated Policy Manual, one Co-Chair  will serve a term ending by the PPM to be held in June 2021 only whereas the other will serve a term ending in June 2022.

 4.  Next Steps

Now that the Call for Interests is closed, the next step is for the Working Group to find consensus on the most suitable persons to replace the recalled PDWG Co-Chairs. 

This exercise, including the carrying out of such due diligence and shortlisting of candidates/nominees, would under normal circumstances be carried out by the Nomination Committee (NomCom). 

For your information, the present NomCom has indicated that they would be available to conduct such exercise only from April 8th 2021. With only 6 candidates, we will leave the decision on the best way of carrying out the due diligence and shortlisting process to the PDWG participants. 

We therefore request you to agree on how the Working Group would like to proceed with the selection of the 2 replacing PDWG’s Co-Chairs. 

Kind Regards

Policy Liaison Team

Cher PDWG,

L'appel à manifestation d'intérêt pour la sélection des coprésidents du PDWG conformément à la section 3.3 de la CPM est désormais terminé.

1.      Liste des nominés

AFRINIC a reçu six (6) candidatures qui sont les suivantes : 

1.Wijdane Goubi du Maroc, Pays de résidence : Maroc  

2. Anthony Ikechukwu Ubah du Nigeria, Pays de résidence : Canada

3. Vincent Ngundi du Kenya, Pays de résidence : Kenya

4. Abdulkarim Oloyede du Nigeria, Pays de résidence : Nigeria

6. Ibeanusi Elvis du Nigeria, Pays de résidence : Japon

2. Éléments supplémentaires

1.                  Candidat - Ibeanusi Elvis

Cette nomination, qui a été reçue en tant qu'auto-nomination, semblait avoir été faite au-delà de la date limite. Cela était dû à un problème de back-end sur les formulaires d'auto-nomination qui a été résolu aujourd'hui dans la journée. Nous confirmons que la nomination a été postée dans le système dans les délais impartis.  

1.      Candidat - Widjane Goubi

En ce qui concerne la candidate, Wijdane Goubi, veuillez noter que le 5 avril 2021, l'AFRINIC a été informée par un courriel envoyé par son prétendu nominateur que ce dernier n'a jamais apporté son soutien à ladite candidature. Il  a donc demandé à l'AFRINIC de supprimer toutes les données personnelles associées à cette candidature. À cet égard, et pour se conformer à la loi mauricienne sur la protection des données de 2017, AFRINIC a le devoir de procéder à ladite suppression sans délai et vous en êtes par conséquent informé.

3. Durée du mandat

Nous souhaitons rappeler au groupe de travail que, comme indiqué à la section 3.3 du CPM, l'un des co-présidents exercera son mandat jusqu'à la PPM qui se tiendra en juin 2021 seulement, tandis que l'autre exercera son mandat jusqu'en juin 2022.

 4.  Prochaines étapes

Maintenant que l'appel à manifestation d'intérêt est terminé, la prochaine étape consiste pour le groupe de travail à trouver un consensus sur les personnes les plus aptes à remplacer les coprésidents du PDWG destitués.

Cet exercice, qui comprend la réalisation d'une évaluation diligente et la sélection des candidats nominés, sera normalement effectué par le comité de nomination (NomCom).

Pour votre information, le NomCom actuel a indiqué qu'il ne serait disponible pour mener cet exercice qu'à partir du 8 avril 2021. Avec seulement 6 candidats, nous laisserons aux participants du PDWG le soin de décider de la meilleure façon de mener à bien le processus de sélection en faisant preuve de diligence raisonnable.

Nous vous demandons donc de vous accorder sur la manière dont le groupe de travail pourrait procéder à la sélection des deux coprésidents remplaçants du PDWG.

Nos Salutations
