African National Congress’s (ANC) First Deputy Secretary-General, Nomvula Mokonyane, says that the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) deserves to have stability and that the ANC doesn’t want to be accused of interfering in how the public broadcaster is run.
She was speaking to SABC News at an International Pentecostal Holiness Church Easter Service in Zuurbekom, Gauteng, where 79 couples were married.
Parliament is expected to revert to the original list of candidates it nominated to serve on the SABC board after a scathing legal opinion questioned President Cyril Ramaphosa’s apparent second-guessing of the legislature’s processes. She says the ANC is concerned about the delay in appointing a new SABC board.
“We all share the concerns of the delays, and the complications that have arisen; they are unfortunate. We hope that parliament will then heed the advice that they’ve been given, and let’s have stability and have the board of the SABC functioning. It is not in our space, unless you want us again to be accused of political interference with the public broadcaster. We share what the public is concerned about, the SABC does need stable leadership.
