Vice president-beach volleyball, Batsho Ruth Mbangwa, who was voted into office last year, has quit with media relations and marketing officer, Mpho Tlhaselo expected to follow suit. Critics accuse BVF president, Magang of bulldozing the executive committee.

Tlhaselo, who has not been part of volleyball activities of late, is said to be unhappy because Magang has taken over his mandate. “The entire executive committee is frustrated.

BVF has also failed to host its Annual General Meeting (AGM), which was postponed indefinitely. Magang is accused of always reminding her executive committee that she is the president and only her word goes. “The friction between Tlhaselo and Magang threw spanners in the works.
