The Congress of the People calls on President Jacob Zuma to immediately fire SABC COO Hlaudi Motsoeneng.

COPE says Motsoeneng wants to turn the public broadcaster into an ANC propaganda machine.

COPE spokesperson Dennis Bloem says the collusive silence of the ANC is a betrayal of public trust in the ruling party.

Bloem added that under Motsoeneng, the SABC is openly violating its mandate as an independent and impartial public broadcaster.

Bloems says we are very delighted to have a judiciary that is independent and that can protect our democracy.

Hlaudi Motsoeneng is really killing this democracy that we fought so hard for.

He is waisting tax payer’s money to now and then go to court and lose cases. We want the President Zuma to fire Motsoeneng as the COO of SABC, Bloem added.
