Hello Session Organizer,

I hope this email meets you well,
This email is to inform you of the Postponement of the AfIGF 2021 Forum
due to some unforeseen events that have led to the unavailability of the
African Union and Host Country Officials on the said dates.
The African IGF Secretariat has decided to postpone the dates to
December 14-16, 2021  ( immediately after the global IGF ).

I apologize for any inconvenience this second postponement might have
caused.

If you have any questions or concerns, then please get in touch here or
you can always fix a meeting with me to discuss the plans
https://calendly.com/joshuajoshua/15min ( Also my number is below if you
wish to chat via WhatsApp )

We are however updating the schedule, website and session information
with the new dates, I would be expecting to hear from you and your
organizations if these new dates are ok with you,
Once again I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience the changes of
dates might have caused you and your organizations and from the
secretariat, we are learning daily and working on making sure to have a
smooth organization of the virtual AfIGF.

Thank you for your time.
