I suggest patience. Diligence never harms anyone.
Allegations differ from guilt.

Who should be more careful not to damage the image of the organisation.

@Lucky

Thanks for the re-assurance.  As the matter has become public can we please 
escalate as quick closure will help us.  

Let’s assume the board will give us an official position on any actions in the 
next few days as has been suggested by others in this thread. 

We are sure that we still have some Good people in the board so waiting for the 
leadership the community vested in the nine members.

These are very serious allegations.

Whatever the outcome the potential damage to the organisation and the
community is real. There are no winners here.

I urge the Board to act with haste to mitigate this risk.

Re: [Community-Discuss] No Update from AFRINIC HR and Administration since 2015

[Andrew Alston]

So,

I’ve now read this document over several times…. And having been involved in 
AfriNIC for so long – there are a few observations

Firstly – what’s contained in here is allegations – and allegations that while 
serious have not been proven in any way.  I do not believe though that anyone 
is in a position to judge the substance or lack thereof of what this contains 
from this document alone.
Secondly – With these allegations becoming public – and because of the 
potential reputational harm to AfriNIC – I do believe (and its just an opinion) 
that they warrant an investigation – and I honestly believe that said 
investigation to have _any_ credibility would have to be done entirely 
externally by a non-biased third party.
Thirdly – I would argue that the outcome of said investigation, while in normal 
situations in a normal corporate, would be dealt with internally, in this case 
should be published – in entirety.  The only reason I argue this is that, as 
members with allegations such as these being made that impact the reputation of 
_our_ organisation, I think this community has a right to answers.
Forth – The board has several choices to make here in my opinion


  1.  Ignore it and say nothing – I do not believe that is an option at this 
point – section 3.4.vii of the AfriNIC bylaws states: To disseminate among its 
members information on all matters affecting the Company and its members and to 
provide for and be a central channel of communication for the members of the 
Company and generally for the furtherance and promotion of their interests
 *   In the case above, I would argue that that an issue such as the one 
raised is very definitely a matter that could have material effect on the 
company, particularly in light of the fact that the individual seemingly making 
these allegations states they are asking for compensation – which would 
presumably be financial
  2.  Conduct a full investigation using an entirely external third party and 
resolve the matter – I would argue as I have above that in the interests of the 
transparency which we aspire to,  such a report should be public
  3.  Considering these allegations have now been made public – there is the 
option of testing them in a court of law and potentially suing for defamation 
(I’m not saying this is a good idea and I have no idea the legal implications 
of it)
  4.  The affected individuals could resign and call it a day – though for me 
personally – the only time that option would be acceptable would be in the case 
of the allegations being proven rather than exactly what they are right now – 
unproven allegations

But I will say – without an investigation and a proper report with proper 
findings conducted by an external party – I think it would be deeply premature 
of this community to judge in the absence of far stronger evidence than one 
document that is comprised of third hand information and allegations.  I also 
however believe that the board has a duty to the members and this community to 
respond in the face of allegations which could have material effect on the 
company.

Let us see what comes from an investigation – then let us judge – and again – 
let me be crystal clear- I am making no assumptions in saying this – and I am 
not defending any party or casting any blame.

Andrew

There is neither the mentioning of turnover nor the reasons for departures

If Mr Yavisht Toolseeya gave plausible and complete explanations in his
