SABC 'a shameful circus' Mpofu slams 'personal vendetta' Mpofu in court again

Johannesburg - SABC chief executive officer Dali Mpofu is considering another round of legal action after the board suspended him again, he said on Friday.

"Yes I can confirm that," he said referring to a Talk Radio 702 report that he was suspended on Thursday night.

"I am on my way to my lawyers now. They are putting some disciplinary charges. They are making the same mistakes as last time. The reason was a whole host of spurious things," he said.

These included making statements to the media.

He would release a statement after consulting with his lawyers on Friday, he said.

SABC spokesperson Kaizer Kganyago said he was not mandated to talk on behalf of the SABC board and comment from a board spokesperson was not immediately available.

Mpofu was first suspended on May 7, a day after he suspended his news chief Snuki Zikalala, who was accused of leaking a memorandum on Mpofu's alleged bad management of the SABC.

Mpofu challenged his suspension and the Johannesburg High Court ruled in his favour.

The SABC was on June 2 denied leave to appeal this judgment.
