BDLive reports that the Democratic Alliance (DA) will once again approach the High Court in a bid to have the appointment of Hlaudi Motsoeneng as SABC group executive of corporate affairs declared invalid.
The party will ask the court to order that Motsoeneng is not a "fit and proper person" to hold any position at the public broadcaster. Last week, the High Court in Cape Town dismissed an application by the SABC for a stay of a DA court case to review and set aside the disciplinary proceedings instituted against Motsoeneng. The disciplinary inquiry was one of the remedial actions directed by Public Protector Thuli Madonsela in her report ‘When Governance and Ethics Fail’.
