South African Tourism board chairperson Aubrey Mhlongo confirmed the resignations, specifically recognising Duminy and Nadasen, who were serving their third term.<\/p>\n

Tourism Minister Lindiwe Sisulu has accepted the resignations. The process of appointing “suitable replacements” is under way.<\/p>\n
