Namibia's music rights organization has placed its top executive on leave while investigators examine accusations of workplace misconduct and creating a hostile professional atmosphere.

Albert Nicanor was removed from his position as chief executive of the Namibian Society of Composers and Authors of Music following complaints about bullying behavior and causing psychological damage to staff members. Board leaders described the action on Wednesday as procedurally neutral rather than punitive, designed to allow independent reviewers to examine the matter without obstruction. Nicanor will continue receiving his complete compensation package during this period, but cannot enter facilities or use organizational computer systems. Ferdinand Gertze will serve as temporary chief executive while interim board chair Joseph Ailonga handles management oversight and external communications.

Nicanor confirmed his removal but contested the legitimacy of how it occurred, stating he learned about the decision from the chairperson that same afternoon. He rejected all accusations as groundless and vowed to pursue litigation against the society for what he characterized as procedural failures. Board members emphasized their commitment to fostering an environment that supports employee welfare and maintains ethical standards across operations.
