Re: CCIE Bootcamp in Nigeria

Of course I normally avoid these threads at all costs, but I am compelled to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed our many Nigerian students in classes throughout my INE tenure. We were even blessed enough to have a recent scholarship winner from Nigeria pass his lab.

I am very proud to have so many Nigerian Facebook friends, and finally, I believe Nigeria is so blessed to have Narbik's incredible bootcamps roll into town.

Enjoy the training everyone, and please, for the good of the group, just unicast (direct email) me with any flames you feel necessary.

Warmest Regards,

Anthony J. Sequeira, CCIE #15626
