Bosasa did not donate to SABC8
23 January 2019
In response to an allegation published by TimesLive that Bosasa "appears" to have donated R100 000 to a crowdfunding campaign for the SABC8 journalists, the South African National Editors' Forum (Sanef) would like to clarify the following:
We have had the opportunity to go through every of the 394 donations made in July 2016 to the cause and could not find any donation from Bosasa and/or a person connected to Bosasa or a donation for R100 000.
Only one donation of over R100 000 was made and that was not from Bosasa or a person connected to the company.
Sanef has asked TimesLive for proof of the alleged payment.
