It is rather unfortunate that we as WMKE members dont like to be Critiqued, we prefer having issues sugar coated and personally I dont do that.The main reason why we got ourselves in this state in the first place is the failure of the Board( of which I am part of) and all WMKE members to do joint accountability and raise questions and demand answers. That said, I have deliberately avoided chiming in on this thread for the said reasons and I do hope that the persons and issues that have led us to this state have/or get resolved.

As the Board Chair, can you convene a meeting to the same?

Thanks Asaf , for bringing this up ,
Was not privileged to attend the Saturday meeting but persuaded to
believe it dint achieve much .There has been considerable noise on the
matter of accountability of WMKE funds ,which is very healthy and can
not be wished away .
Permit me to use this forum to address the Board members whom
members entrusted responsibility , there is work cut out for you ,We
need you to steer us through this murky waters.
your priority should be;
1.Set up a dedicated joint account for WMKE funds ASAP
2.Finalize the incorporation thing ,its unfortunate that Abbas who
was taking care of this & has since left ,who i must applaud for his
immense contribution .
And finally someone please update me on the status of the audit
committee ,is in place ?
if this is not done pretty soon we shall be asking ourselves ,...When
did the rain start hitting us ?

my concerns ,with love!
