Hello community
I think I misused the word “take over” to spike some unfortunate sentiments.
Let me try this again:
In the interest of internet continuity, another RIR should help AFRINIC (by
staff or infrastructure), to perform it’s core registration service function
for the time being, until all AFRINIC litigation has been sorted to avoid
disruption to our African end users and businesses.
Regards
Paul

Apologies for the duplicate post, but the initial posting was too large.
The concerns expressed by TISPA, as well as other concerned parties and
especially by AFRINIC's own admission in the news outlet lexpress.mu, which is
available at https://ibb.co/tmWCk0k, regarding the AFRINIC’s inability to keep
providing its core registry functions due to its inability to meet its
financial requirements.
I suggest that in order not hold end users, ISPs and any other business's
hostage, for the interest of continue service of AFRINIC’s core registry
service, we should urgently call for NRO fulfil their responsibility as well as
commitment to the global internet to take over AFRINIC’s registration service
for the time being, until litigation is settled some time later.

That way, no end user or business will ever impacted however results come out
of litigation.
