CSA's previous board resigned earlier this week after the Members' Council asked it to - amid the governing body's leadership crisis. 


Former CEO - Thabang Moroe was fired following allegations of misconduct.


Jacques Faul who had stepped into the role in the interim following Moroe's suspension - quit in August - because he was apparently not happy with the way the board was conducting its business. 


CSA president Chris Nenzani also resigned that same month. 


Other board members include Omphile Ramela, Stavros Nikalo, Andre Odendaal, Judith February, Andile Dawn Mbatha, Xolani Vonya and Nkeko Caroline Mampuru.
