Nzimande and Magashule want the ANC to gain control over SABC

Speaking during a public lecture on Cuba and Latin America at Unisa’s main campus in Pretoria on Friday, ANC secretary general Ace Magashule and SACP general secretary Blade Nzimande both commented on the perceived blackout of the ANC on SABC news platforms., Magashule hinted that it was time the governing party took control of the SABC.

During his own speech, Nzimande responded “let’s put pressure, comrade Ace, on the SABC. We can’t be having a poison that we are given every day about Venezuela and Cuba and sit and keep quiet and say that we have a public broadcaster.” The SACP general secretary further critiqued the SABC’s coverage of Cuba and Latin America, stating that it was tainted by the bias of the news agencies they aggregated the news from. He recounted having listened to an SABC radio news broadcast that he claimed aired a report about Venezuela without calling the South African ambassador to Venezuela for comment.“Don’t tell us you have freedom of expression. We know that.

That sounds so 50's. So totalitarian. So 'National Democratic Revolution' 🙄🤮

Of course they do. So does Payfokol Mbalula but he's got a lot less clout these days 🤣
