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

Dear AFRINIC community,
AFRINIC has received a complaint containing several allegations. It is a
matter of concern, which will be investigated forthwith. A further
communication will be addressed to the community in due course.

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.

With all due respect we are pained by the allegations. They are pointed at the
board more than at the organisation so I would rather the board handles this
response.
We need to distance our organization at this stage so let’s please leave
response to board.

Dear Badru,
My response was from me as CEO.

I still think at this stage until board pronounced itself. Even CEO should
wait for board.

There is loss of trust in the board. This is the point where a critical
review of AFRINIC mandate must be done.
I think we need to clean up our house and not taking side clean our board.

Dear all,
As a woman, it was very uncomfortable reading the allegations especially
since among allegations are sexual harassment allegations. In light of what
is happening worldwide on the same topic, we need to speak out boldly
against this.
Here's hoping that the right structures are in place t

@Badru
Allan is correct in responding. The CEO takes the lead on such issues. The
Board can also respond. However I’d like to caution all of us not cast
aspersions right now. This is a serious matter that impugns on the
organization. The Board is a representation of the community in the

Colleagues
As indicated, these are serious allegations.
I would encourage the community to not leap to conclusions prematurely.
If you have lost your faith in the board then vote for different candidates at
the next election.
I have not lost my trust in the board, but will need to be assured s

I completely agree.
On the other hand there’s the wider public. This must be managed prudently,
wisely and with urgency. In cases like this there are clear guidelines and best
practices to follow. Some suggestions below:-

AFRINIC is powered by the community. The allegations where made to the
community. The board comes from the community. Lets not underestimate the
power of the community.
This being a community mailing list, lets respect the fact that Alan has

@Ali
This is not a minor issue and thus the reason we are all waiting for our
elected Board.
Please note elected board, CEO needs to be protected at this moment.
If chair cannot comment then one o our other elected board should. That’s what
accountability is about.
Our organization must be p
While I agree such allegations must be taken seriously and a proper
investigation should be conducted, I must say that the texts and other data in
the original email contain nothing to substantiate the allegations, but rather
appear to be an entirely professional attempt to address a legitimate
I agree with Badru and I call upon the community to protect CEO and his
team. The board is not the face of AFRINIC, CEO Is the face of AFRINIC.
The Board can always be voted and created. The Community should not be
neglected.

I agree it’s not a small matter. However, what the CEO did is correct. He
issued a statement. The Board is at the moment conflicted so may not be fair to
expect them to respond immediately. Not sure if the Board has a Governance

Yes what we have is allegations and insinuations. But they are pretty grave
allegations that need to be treated delicately. none of us can comment on the
content but we are asking for the head of the house to assure us that the smoke

Dear CEO and BOARD,
The matter is sensitive and requires the highest standard of care.
We expect a statement and a commitment that AfriNIC is a safe working place and

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 h
