SABC acting chief executive believed to have signed off 20-million-Rand deal

The Broadcasting, Electronic Media and Allied Workers’ Union says the SABC’s acting chief executive Phil Molefe is responsible for recent wasteful expenditure at the cash-strapped public broadcaster.

It was revealed yesterday that 20-million-Rand has been spent on the rental of luxury cars for SABC news staff.

The union says the rentals deviated from tender processes and violated an expenditure moratorium.

It is believed that Molefe signed off on the rental agreements.

The SABC says no money has been paid yet and they are investigating the allegations.
