[governance] IGC ELECTION RESULTS [Welcoming the New Coordinators of the IGC]

[Nnenna Nwakanma]

I'm happy that we've come this far. Dee, you have our support, full and
overflowing.
I'm personally convinced that your experience and personality are just
perfect to facilitate IGC out of the current situation into a better status.

Mawaki, we are happy to have your cool and analytical spirit. And hell,
yes! It is good to have someone who understands French and Portuguese...

I wish you both all the very best!
