South Africa a leading nation in fight against doping


South Africa is a leading nation in the fight against doping.

That's according to David Howman, the director-general of the World Anti-doping Agency.

He says South Africa is probably one of the most committed countries to the agency and the SA Institute for Drug Free Sport, and is a leader in anti-doping on the African continent.

Howman was speaking at a Wits seminar on sports law and anti-doping in Johannesburg on Saturday morning in place of Sports Minister Fikile Mbalula, who had been "caught up until the early hours of the morning" at the ANC policy conference in Midrand.
