[RSSAC Caucus] Nomination Period: RSSAC Liaison to the ICANN Nominating Committee

[ABDULKARIM AYOPO OLOYEDE]

Hi,
This year has been a challenging year and am sure this added additional
work load to the work of NOMCOM like most other groups.
 Therefore, I would like to express my support for Amir to be returned for
another year.

Thanks
Abdulkarim
