Thanks Charles for your feedback, however if you go back to the previous discussions as well as the title of the subject, members discussed ways and means of merging the varied associations which in my opinion is not feasible.  I think this thread came from Charles,

>>I ment that ...... was the first ....... of the merged factions of  
  which he made christianity compulsory more like the KANU of the  
90s  i.e. BABA NA MAMA. .........was more like george okado the  
founding chairman of computer society......
 
Regards,

Sam

Subject: Re: [kictanet] RATIONALE OF ICT ASSOCIATIONS MERGER

Charles - I agree with Evans completely. The title of your mail refers
to "Associations Merger" while in the substance of the mail you talk of
"Federation". In a federation individual associations maintain their
identity while in a merger they are swallowed up by one behemothic
entity. A federation is practical where, as Charles indicates,
over-arching and cross-cutting issues need to be addressed. There is
also a practical aspect when engaging government. Otherwise specialist
associations keep coming up according to need and technology changes and
someone trying to stop or curtail them would be doing a dis-service.
Just the other day on this list I was reading of a new association for
those interested in software testing. That's OK. It will move the
country ahead.

A Federation should be a "thin" entity rather than a full-blown
association to avoid competing or duplicating what the sub-associatons
are doing. It can even operate with just one member of staff as it is
just a "special service vehicle". For it to be widely accepted  it is
important for it to be developed BOTTOM-UP with the full participation
of the underlying associations. A federation that is set up and then
imposed can never work.

Just to repeat that in our case of a couple of years ago we agreed to
implement federation for INDUSTRY associations through the KEPSA ICT
Board and so far that is working very very well.

Kind Regards,
Waudo
