Dear Valued AfriNIC Members,
It is confirmed that Cloud Innovation Limited has filed a winding up petition against AFRINIC before the Bankruptcy Division of the Supreme Court of Mauritius, and this with the view to appointing a liquidator of its choice.
The case is returnable on the 24 July 2025 for AFRINIC to put an appearance on the e-judiciary system and to provide its stand.
The petition is currently being scrutinised by our internal and external legal advisers.
At this stage, the winding up petition, on its own, does not impact the ongoing election process, and the Receiver proceeding diligently with the organisation of the elections.
It is emphasised that the Receiver has a strict court mandate to hold, organise and supervise the elections in order to have a functioning board at AfriNIC, and the Receiver will comply strictly with his court mandate.
We will keep you informed of all developments in that regard.
AFRINIC
