[NCUC-DISCUSS] REMINDER-NCUC 2026 Election Timeline Information

[Emmanuel Vitus]

Dear all,

I would like to express my support for the nomination of Ines for the NCUC
Africa EC role. Ines has always been a constructive collaborator and
someone very easy to work with.

I would also like to clarify a point for the community. A candidate named
Emmanuel Nnaemeka Vitus has nominated himself for the NCUC seat. Several
colleagues reached out to me thinking it was me. It is not. I do not know
him personally, we have never collaborated, and I have never met him before.

It appears to simply be someone using 2 of my names and a different
surname, which understandably created some confusion.
Thank you!
