Communications Minister Faith Muthambi says SABC Chief Operations Officer Hlaudi Motsoeneng earned R2.87 million in 2013.
In written reply to a parliamentary question by the Democratic Alliance, she said that in 2012 Motsoeneng had earned R2.48m, and
in 2011 R1.61m.
DA MP Gavin Davis said Motsoeneng's R2.8 million salary for 2013 was more than President Jacob Zuma's 2.6 million rand annual salary.
Davis said Motsoeneng's pay in 2010 was just over R334 000, meaning he'd enjoyed an eight-fold increase in four years.
Davis claimed that Motsoeneng had been "protected, promoted and rewarded" for his political loyalties to Zuma.
