Dear sirs/ma,
Further to the ongoing email and the available information.
The Local organising committee, Wikiindaba 2019 write to notify you that we
have allotted the under listed unallocated scholarship slots as follows:
1. Felix Narte's scholarship to be replaced by* Emna Mizouni* ( Tunisia)
2. Isla Haddow's scholarship to be replaced by *Azibert Yakhoub* (Chad)
( His name was in the initial list sent to WMF, but it erroneously omitted
from the current master list. A congratulatory email was sent to him on 7th
August. 2019)
3. Chandapiwa Molete's scholarship to be replaced by *Rezkallah Fayçal
Mohammed *(Algeria) Since, Reda refusal to attend Indaba, there is no
Algeria on the list, hence our decision to add Fay. He's already on the
waiting list.
4. Rossouw Van Rooyen's scholarship to be replaced by *Abderamane Brahim
Abakar* ( Chad) Visa-free to Nigeria
Thanks for your understanding.

Dear Sirs,
Greetings,
Sequel to the under listed situations :
- Notification of Chandapiwa Molete's withdrawal from participation at
WikiIndaba 2019
- Visa refusal of Mr Rossouw Van Rooyen by the Nigeria High Commission
to Namibia ( We have confirmed the resolution of our embassy in Namibia not
to issue this visa)
We, therefore, require to consider more people for the available slots.
Emna, the current Wikimedians of the Year stated her intention to attend
the conference. She further told me that she regretted her inability to
register for the scholarship during the window period for the scholarship
application.
What do we think?
