IOL News reports that veteran SA Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) news anchor and contributing editor Vuyo Mvoko’s case looks set to proceed in the Johannesburg High Court after the disputing parties failed to reach a settlement on Thursday morning.
Earlier on Thursday, Mvoko consulted with his lawyers following their meeting with the judge and SABC counsel. Mvoko has applied to the court for the enforcement of his contract after the SABC said he would no longer be used to produce programmes until their dispute was settled. Mvoko, who was not a full-time SABC employee and worked on contract, was not mentioned in the SABC statement on Wednesday reinstating seven other axed journalists. His was the eighth head to roll in the wake of internal resistance to the decision to censor violent protest footage and criticism of the SABC.
