President Jacob Zuma is reported to be very worried about the state of the South African Broadcasting Corporation.

Yesterday Zuma accepted resignations of four of the corporation’s board members.

Amongst the resignations was that of deputy chairperson of the board Felleng Sekha and Barbara Masekela.

Presidency spokesperson Zizi Kodwa says, although the president accepted the resignations he is disappointed and wants to see a well-run SABC.

Until new members are selected, the board will only be able to form a quorum if the executive members who work full-time at the corporation attend meetings.
