The disgusting and extremely embarrassing volatile backstage executive moves and uncertainty within SABC top executive ranks is showing the South African public how little control there is in reality behind the scenes at the beleaguered ABC where executives are no longer even trying to pretend to play nice or to have control.
Hlaudi Motsoeneng's sudden reinstatement follows the SABC board's disgraceful sudden cancellation of its appearance before parliament's portfolio committee on communications just over a week ago although the SABC board members were in Cape Town.
The SABC didn't immediately respond to a media enquiry as to what is going on at the battered public broadcaster, why Mike Siluma resigned and why the SABC board made someone the acting chief operating officer just for that person to resign three days later.
Shockwaves are emanating about the sudden reinstatement of Hlaudi Motsoeneng who famously doesn't have matric, and who was assigned back to his old job as the general executives tasked for looking after provinces and stakeholders at the SABC last week - just to be reinstated a mere 72 hours later when Mike Siluma bailed.
The latest shocker - the biggesst yet at the SABC in years - and the self-evident executive circus at the SABC's upper echelon of power will further hammer and dent the SABC's already tarnished and tattered public image which took its biggest beating last year with the most negative stories in the South African press ever about the struggling public broadcaster.
