[kictanet] Fwd: Promotion for registration of .africa at 200 KES

Wed Feb 6 09:59:07 EAT 2019

Hi Ali,

This information is very clear. It is the responsibility of Registrars to
inform and  educate the Registrants on the same. Mark Elkins has done that
in this thread. That said no excuses, this domain is going for the price of
a loaf of bread it cant get any cheaper, people should just buy , we can
discuss renewal fees in 11 months time.
