[NCUC-DISCUSS] Acceptance of nomination for NCUC EC

[Sonigitu Ekpe]

Please correct me if am wrong.
I did appreciate so far the efforts of the founding fathers. After 16years
we need to see a larger picture.

The EC has certain tasks and the treasurer also do, all these years.Has
anyone held the position of voting and non-voting? If yes fine, if no Why?

Then the bye-laws should be review to reflect the reality of time and the
incorporation be vigorously followed as we have migrated to be a more
Global entity.

In any case lets see how it works out, for a smooth take off.

My 50cents.
