[afrigeek] details of the upcoming AIS events.

[Nancy Dotse]

Hello Mark,

Thanks for the issues raised.  AfNOG & AFRINIC (AIS Organisers) is equally
concerned following the outbreak of COVID-19 (corona-virus). The situation
is currently being assessed and all available options being reviewed to
determine the way forward.


Would keep you updated shortly


Thanks

Nancy
