The same point was raised by Arsene weeks ago and Rafik clearly suggested a strategy that could help us achieved a more desirable outcome. In addition with Rafik suggestion, I would also like to suggest that we need to put on the hat of nominate ourselves for strategically positioning. While we are actively participating, Rafik, Poncelet, Farell, Anriette, Arsene among others should use their influence to nominate African colleagues . This would clearly shows that there is potential African candidates on the list.
