the url that you reference says:
“.. The AFRINIC Bylaw (Section 16) allows the Board to appoint..”

“allow” is not the same as “automatic” to *this* native-english speaker.

so, i looked up the bylaws.
quoting: http://afrinic.net/en/about/bylaws?start=15

“16.1 Membership to the Council shall be opened to such former chairpersons who served at least one full term in that capacity. “
i read that[1] “shall”, as a SHOULD and not MUST (2119 style).

you might read that differently,
—n.

[1] though, of course, i don’t speak for the board   :-)
