SABC Television building in Auckland Park, Johannesburg.
The media watchdog has decided to take the President to court for the delay. It is asking the Constitutional Court for an order declaring that the President has failed to fulfil this constitutional obligation. The organisation’s Director William Bird says they approached the court after the President missed their February 17th deadline to make the appointment or face legal action.
“We have approached the court in direct access, an exclusive jurisdiction that the President does not have the power to delay appointing the board. In other words, he does not have the time, or the ability to question whether he should be appointing a certain board member over others. He’s got those 12 names, he has to appoint them. If he does not like any of them or he thinks there is a problem with them, he can then do what anyone in society can take those appointments on review.
So are they saying Cyril is mad.
The fixation with boards is most puzzling. Which board in the history of our democrazy has done so well to deserve this affection? Makwana begs u to install solar panels, now u want the SABC board to tell u to subscribe to Netflix?
