The SABC has suspended its chief audit executive, Lorraine Francois, but the public broadcaster has not announced the news, nor given any reasons.
The SABC chairperson, dr Ben Ngubane, informed Lorraine Francois by letter that she has allegedly been working against the interest and authority of the SABC board.
I have asked the SABC what the reasons of suspension of Lorraine Francois are but the SABC tells me "this is a matter between employer and employee".
"The SABC can confirm that Lorraine Francois, the chief audit executive, has been suspended. This is a matter between employer and employee. Therefore we are not at liberty to discuss the matter further in the media".
