The SABC’s interim board wants to recoup losses incurred by the state broadcaster – by withholding the pensions of former bosses Hlaudi Motsoeneng and James Aguma.

Interim board chairwoman Khanyisile Kweyama told parliament on Tuesday that significant losses were incurred due to Motsoeneng’s 90% local content policy‚ reported Eyewitness News.

The television division lost R183-million in advertising revenue and radio division R29-million‚ according to unaudited figures.
