<div dir="ltr">Dear community,<div><br>I believe that there should be a recall committee that has never had any involvement with AFRINIC before, otherwise the judgement won’t be 100% objective and unbiased. As I already said before, the reasons behind this recall are very obvious, especially after the constant personal attacking of the co-chairs for approving one policy and disapproving others.<div><br>Therefore, and in order for the process to be as smooth and as fair as possible, I strongly support and recommend the idea of giving the lead to members from other regions alongside the AFRINIC staff to decide whether the co-chairs should be removed or not and whether this recall document should even be taken into consideration.</div><div><br>Regards,<br>Wijdane.<br></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">Le mer. 2 déc. 2020 à 01:39, Ibeanusi Elvis <<a href="mailto:ibeanusielvis@gmail.com">ibeanusielvis@gmail.com</a>> a écrit :<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div style="overflow-wrap: break-word;">
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Dear Board; Dear all,</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Following the language of the CPM’s current policy for
Recall of the PDWG Co-chairs as stated in 3.5 Conflict Resolution, “…</span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;background-color:white">The
AFRINIC Board of Directors shall appoint a recall committee, excluding the

AFRINIC’s RPD mailing list specifically exacerbated by the PDP decisions. I
concur that most of the community or AFRINIC members decisions are already made
up even prior to proper investigations and trial hearings. Thus, appointing
Recall Committee members that its integrity will not be challenged and question
often, or a committee with no conflict of interest and the decisions won’t be
politicized or biased but rather their judgement will be based on the principle
of impartiality, fairness and objectivity is going to be difficult. <u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;font-size:10.5pt">Therefore, I advocate that the Board of Directors
should appoint a Recall Committee composed of people from outside the AFRINIC
region (APNIC, ARIN, RIPE NCC) whom has had no prior or past involvement with
the AFRINIC before. This Recall Committee with the assistance of the AFRINIC
staff will be provided with the necessary documents and information that will
aid them in having a clear understanding of the present situation. The purpose
of this appointment is to ensure that the Recall Committee’s judgement will be
objective, fair and impartial thus not being a political decision.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Best,</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;font-size:10.5pt">Elvis.</span></p>
