Freedom Front Plus leader Pieter Groenewald has suggested the sacking of the SABC’s executives, instead of rank-and-file workers, as a means to reduce the corporation’s massive salary bill. “It has now reached a point where the price for the extravagance must be paid and suddenly those keeping the engine of the ship going – newsreaders, writers and technicians – are the ones who are being retrenched. Rather get rid of the top management and executive authority and reduce the inflated salaries. That is the only way to save the SABC ship from going under,” Groenewald said.
Groenewald cited the case of former SABC COO, Hlaudi Motsoeneng, who earned R4.197 million during the 2015-2016 financial year while the broadcaster had a deficit of R411 million. He compared that to the R2.75 million salary of former president Jacob Zuma, which was almost half of what Motsoeneng earned.
