Ok, now that's better. I had a look at the guy and it seems it all checks out - he's also a fellow in Barcelona.

Hello Farnazeh.Thank you for the mail. It's nice to reconnect with you.I have been observing your work and your vital contributions to ICANN and the internet governance as a whole. It is really impressive and I appreciate your humility and determination :). Concerning Afrotribune and the nature of its activity:Forget the LLC mentioned under the signature of the membership application mail. This was the form that Afrotribune initially had in the US Before my return to Africa. But it was dissolved a year ago.Afrotribune currently operates in Africa as a non-for-profit organization with headquarters in Accra, Ghana and also registered as a civil society organization in Togo. Afrotribune currently has 47 active members composed of journalists, researchers, computer scientists, academics and political analysts.Beyond the work of producing African content (Articles, Videos, Images) to enrich the Web with positive contents on Africa, we also participate in the debates on Internet governance including in the development of public policy and research work in the field of internet governance. We also provide policymakers especially the government with advice and expert views.  We participated in ICANN's DNS Africa Research as an organization and also GISWatch report 2017 and 2018.We also contribute to several guest posts/Campaigns and petitions with other sister organizations like APC in recent months.I would like to be the official representative of the Afrotribune at NCSG. I hope this helps you.Best Regards, Emmanuel
