Answer 2

Good day,

Hope you well.

Please choose the correct  scenario  and follow the prompt on the link attached since you did not specify whether the domain name is registered with afrihost or private provider

scenario 1 (domain registered with private provider)

scenario 2 (domain registered with Afrihost)

Please note that you will need to complete 'give or gain' (change of domain ownership)

current owner will need to complete 'give' domain.

Then you will need to complete 'gain' domain.
