*[Speaking as nominee for AfriNIC Board election 2017 central Africa seat4]*
Dear Nomcom Chair, I have nominated myself for AfriNIC Board election 2017 on *21 April 2017* respecting the process published in http://www.afrinic.net/en/libr ary/news/2035-afrinic-2017-board-nomination after *15 days* I have *NOT* received any acknowledgment of my nomination from *Nomcom* neither my too *seconder* did *NOT* received any mail from *Nomcom*. The probability might be high that I am not the only nominee facing this problem. For the sake record and substantiate my concern which might be shared by other nominees, I would like bring to your attention and members of the community the following event. *1.* On *20 April 2017* I have tried to proceed [*IP: 155.69.200.X* ] with my self-nomination as Board nominee 2017 via the link provided https://registration.afrinic.net/events/node/3. Unfortunately the link was not working the problem was forwarded to *AfriNIC help-desk* and *Noncom* [Please ref the image] *2.* On *21 April 2017*, I have received an official apology from the Nomcom Chair concerning the nomination link problem which was fixed. Furthermore, the message related to Board nomination link problem fixed was sent to the entire community on *21 April 2017* [image]. * 3. *After the Board link problem was fixed, I have successfully completed on *21 April 2017 *and received the acknowledgement from the application. [image] *4.* It has been *8 day* *(28 April 2017)* since I have written another email to Nomcom asking for update or at least an acknowledgment of my nomination, the Nomcom have promise to get back to me asp (now 8 days). [image] *5.* Today I have been waiting for *15 days* to get at least the acknowledgement of my nomination from Nomcom. In summary, I do understand the Nomcom will contact me and my seconders asap since the list of the candidate should be published on *12 may 2017*. Following all the evidence presented, considering there was technical problem on the setting up the Board link which I have raised on *20 April 2017* and was reported fixed on *21 April 2017*, One might understand that the reported technical Board nomination link problem ( http://www.afrinic.net/en/library/news/2035-afrinic-2017- board-nomination ) could be the reason of the application did not delivered automatic acknowledge to message to the nominee after the application was submitted. With Best Regards, *Christian D. Bope*
