SABC to Get Interim Board – Nyanda

Newly appointed Minister of Communications (DoC), Siphiwe Nyanda, says an interim board for the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) could be established within a week.

Nyanda points out, "As we face this crisis, we are looking upon Parliamentary process to help pass a motion that will dissolve the current board... the President will then appoint an interim board."

Nyanda, who says that public participation would then take place during the process of appointing a new permanent board, was speaking at a debate on the future of public broadcasting at the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg.
"We must build a public broadcaster that is the pride of the country," explained Nyanda.
