The meeting was adjourned before the SABC management could reply to all the questions and allegations against it. “[We come here] as a broken, depleted and a demoralised newsroom, where fear and anxiety roam the corridors of our buildings.

Well , that is SABC for you. This house owned by SABC, Golfview Mahikeng. Wanton destruction of heritage, waste of resources, insult to tax payers, bringing crime to my suburb. I know 5 people who tried to rent or buy it. No accountability.
