eNCA's Africa Editor resigns

18 Jun 2014

eNCA has announced that its Africa Editor, Chris Maroleng, has resigned after six years at the broadcaster to pursue a career in the corporate sector in South Africa. Maroleng's last day will be on 12 July, 2014.

Maroleng led the team which started eNews Africa in 2009 and has built up a Africa division which has done excellent work bringing stories of our continent to South Africans, viewers across Africa and further afield.

Maroleng and the Africa team have built eNCA into a credible and well-respected source of Africa news. He was also instrumental in the setting up of news bureaus in Nairobi and Lagos. In addition, his show, Africa 360 has had a long-run and has built up a loyal audience on eNCA.

Ben Said, Group News Editor says, "eNCA can confirm that Chris Maroleng has resigned. The good work done by Chris and his team will continue. eNCA remains committed to bringing credible and balanced news from around the African continent. He will be greatly missed for his knowledge and expertise".
