Nomination for Arsene Tungali for a seat on the GNSO Council

[Arsène Tungali]

Dear all,

I would like (once again) to thank you for your wonderful words of
encouragement as i am stepping forward to seek your support for the GNSO
Council. I would like to thank Mamadou for the nomination and everyone who
stood publicly to support my nomination which i have already accepted. It
is an honor and a responsability to be the only nominee from the Africa
region.

Should you give me the opportunity to serve on the Council, i will be
working hard in representing the views of the non commercial stakeholder
group and ensure our voice is heard on topics that we care about as NC
users. I will take this as a learning opportunity and will hopefully count
on your support into the journey.

Looking forward to the vote.

Best regards,
Arsene
