Former Minister in the Presidency for Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities, Maite Nkoana-Mashabane, is the first to resign after being dropped from cabinet.
While the Proteas were toiling on the field in Pakistan on Wednesday, the Cricket South Africa (CSA) interim board, and particularly chairman Zak Yacoob, was in a crisis meeting with Sports Minister Nathi Mthethwa.
Yacoob launched a stunning verbal attack on a member of the media last week, which was recorded and published on
TimesLive. It revealed, in stark detail, the learned judge’s short temper and bullying tactics. It made his position untenable.
As a result, Yacoob has resigned and admitted in a statement that his behaviour and comments were “inappropriate”. Fellow interim board member Dr Stavros Nicolaou will lead the board until the end of its tenure on 15 February.

HUNDREDS of residents came to bid farewell to former Bafana Bafana star Anele Ngcongca at JL Zwane Memorial Church in Cape Town Thursday.
The funeral was attended by former Bafana Bafana players and Sports Minister Nathi Mthethwa.
Residents and Mamelodi Sundowns supporters sang, danced and jostled each other when they saw the hearse carrying Anele’s body on its way to the Maitland Cemetery.
Anele’s sister, Nomonde Tshaka, said the quiet and peaceful little boy didn’t change when he grew up.
