ANA reports that the Democratic Alliance (DA) has said it would be filing a supplementary affidavit in its court case against SA Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) corporate affairs group executive Hlaudi Motsoeneng.  

This came after more evidence emerged in the media on Sunday detailing Motsoeneng’s obvious unfitness to hold any senior position at the SABC, the DA said.  The reports revealed, amongst other things, that Motsoeneng did not adhere to the SABC policy on request for proposals (RFP) approved in 2014, and thereby defied the SABC’s own commissioning policy, and that he commissioned R600 million worth of local TV shows for which he brought in celebrity actors as producers, through a back door.  The DA’s case against Motsoeneng is set to be heard on 23 and 24 November 2016.
