[NCUC-DISCUSS] Acceptance of nomination for NCUC EC

[Sonigitu Ekpe]

Hello Great Friends and Fellow,

For transparency and accountability, I would suggest Prof. Milton to handle
on post at a time when it comes to voting and non-voting position.

It will not tell good if he stands in as Non - voting and Voting in the EC.
One head one hat in the same building.

Thank you.
