Hi Daniel, et al.
The spirit of the the "Out-Of-Region Use of AFRINIC Internet Number
Resources" policy is meant to curtail issues like these that are a result
of either our policy or implementation gaps.
I would urge you and every other community member to voice support and
provide feedback on how we can improve the current draft.
