A group of South African artists in support of South African Broadcasting Corporation COO Hlaudi Motsoeneng say they will protect him from anyone who threatens his position at the broadcaster, including the ANC.

The group picketed outside the SABC’s offices in Auckland Park today, interrupting an anti-censorship demonstration happening at the same time.

While they are calling for Motsoeneng to be protected, the South African Communist Party and other organisations say he needs to be fired.
