House Chair, South Africa is approaching its most important elections since 1994, and central to the election to any democracy, is a capacitated free and fair media which is able to cover all political parties and issues without fear or favour. In past elections we have seen how the SABC has been used to silence parties, like the EFF while at the same time pumping up this useless ANC. This is why we needed skill competent and non partisan in the SABC Board which is committed to free and fair broadcasting. Unfortunately many of the candidates on the list do not meet these criteria, and amongst the recommended candidates, we have individuals, like Fase Cooper who has a questionable history is related to the employment in the civil service, in fact Fase Cooper was implicated in the 2003 report, which looted the abuse of power and the University funds while he was the vice chancellor at the University of Durban
