CMA board rocked by resignations

JOHANNESBURG - The current state of the Comrades Marathon Association can be likened to the condition of a first-time runner of the ultramarathon the following morning. 

The organisation is experiencing severe governance and administrative aches. 

Five days ago, CMA confirmed the resignation of four board members; Mqondisi Ngcobo, Leslie Burnard, Kerwin Basson and Pumlani Ntuli, with immediate effect. 

Online harassment, cyberbullying and defamation is said to have played a huge role in the board members decision to resign. 

Joining us to help us understand what is happening is CMA Elder and interim chairperson Jeff Minnaar.
