[Ncuc-af] Endorsemnt for Elections

Thu Oct 5 12:46:51 CEST 2017

Hello Arsene et al.

you all got what is my mind. Either Yolanda or Ines I support them and hope
they will accept the nomination.

It is a good idea that we start discussing  about nomination in the future
especially when it comes to African seat !

Hi Farell,

I would like to salute this effort and thanks for sharing your thoughts
about uniting behind one or two candidates to maximize the chances of
either one of them or even both.

I am one of those who encourage many candidatures as a way to give us the
choice to chose among candidates the one we think will serve at best our
interests as the Africa group. It is always better to have two rather than
one and we should encourage this spirit for our members to come forward and
offer their expertise, time to support the work we are doing. We have
always called for more participation and engagement from Africa and it
starts with encouraging many people to come forward to seek our vote as a
community and then for us to chose one (as it is only one seat).

Ines as our current Africa Rep has done very well and I have no intentions
of saying she didn't do very well and that we should not vote her for a
second term where i am sure she has got the potential to do better now that
she knows how things work; but at another hand, i have no intention to say
that Yolanda should withdraw because that i am sure (though she hasn't
accepted the nomination yet) she is interested and is capable to be a good
Africa rep.

My suggestion is that we should have the two run and then decide who to
vote for after we have heard from both of them with regards to their plans.
I am sure Ines is also interested in hearing what Yolanda has as plan and
if Ines is elected, she might be willing to tap into that plan and work
alongside Yolanda in making it a reality. Alternatively, if Yolanda is
elected, she will (i believe) tap into what Ines had as plan because after
all, they both look forward to supportour community at their best.

Finally, it won't be about who win and who love because it is all part of
the learning process and each one of them will learn from the outcomes of
the process.

Alternatively, I would suggest however in the future if we can discuss
elections in our group here before the nomination period starts and agree
on a single candidate and send nominate that one but since we are having
this discussion after nominations are out, I would strongly suggest we go
with the two; unless one has a different opinion and wants to withdraw to
maximize the chances of the other one.

I hope this all make sense and again, they are just thoughts and are not
fixed on a stone. I am happy to change my mind if the group agrees on a
specific process to follow.

Regards,
Arsene
