Black Management Forum president Mpho Motsei has retaliated by suspending seven board members after an independent report implicate him in governance failures and financial irregularities.

The Black Management Forum (BMF) has plunged into an escalating cycle of tit-for-tat suspensions driven by internal leadership struggles.

This was after BMF president Mpho Motsei dismissed his own suspension and retaliated by issuing suspension letters to seven board directors.

This is after an independent investigation implicated him in major governance lapses and financial irregularities.

Curiously, the report did not implicate the seven suspended members.
