Tomorrow, Wednesday 11 July 2018, IFP President Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi MP will lead a delegation of the IFP to meet with the newly appointed executive (CEO, COO and Head of News) of the SABC Head Office in Auckland Park, Johannesburg.
This follows on our march in 2013 and subsequent meetings with former COO Hlaudi Motsoeneng with regards to impartial, independent and fair news coverage for the party.
As the public broadcaster plays a pivotal role in our democracy, the IFP believes that it is important ahead of the 2019 National and Provincial Election that the SABC be reminded and stay mindful of their mandate in serving the public in the best possible way.
The IFP will in the coming months engage other media houses as part of our media and communications stakeholder engagement efforts, ahead of the 2019 National Election.
Meeting details as follows:
Date: Wednesday, 11 July 2018
Time: The meeting is scheduled to start at 11h00.
Venue: SABC Head Office, Auckland Park, Johannesburg
