'Enough is enough' says suspended SABC economics editor
Updated | By Jacaranda FM News
Suspended SABC economics editor Thandeka Gqubule says she can no longer remain silent about the situation at the public broadcaster.
Gqubule is one of three senior staffers who have been suspended for disagreeing with a decision not to cover a protest targeting the broadcaster.
Executive producer, Foeta Krige, and senior journalist Suna Venter have all been suspended for disagreeing with an instruction during a diary conference not to cover the Right2Know campaign’s protest against censorship at the SABC.
Gqubule spoke to Jacaranda FM News about why she's participating in the protest against the public broadcaster.
Protestors marched to Constitutional Hill where a memorandum was handed over to court officials.
Gqubele also addressed the crowd.
