Re: [npoc-voice] RE: Nomination of Poncelet for NPOC Chair

[Olivier Kouami <olivierkouami@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello ! Hi ! Bonjour ou Bonsoir !

Ooohhh, why not ?

It will sound very good if an african could be the Chair of NPOC.

I think it will speak a lot about our true representation of "Not for
profit" interests. It's also true that most "Not for profits" do work in
Africa.

So, I can only support the candidacy of my brother and friend Poncelet as
President of the NPOC and I am inviting you to support him also.

Cheers !
