EP Rugby issued the following statement on behalf of Vernon Stuurman, Executive Member, EPRU today:
“The Eastern Province Rugby Union has noted media reports on allegations made by the Ratepayers Association and AfriForum Port Elizabeth of money being paid to Access Management to fund the EP Kings.
“As the finance referred to is said to have come from the Nelson Mandela Bay Metropolitan Municipality, EP Rugby regards itself as a major stakeholder playing a particular part in the space of participatory governance. As a responsible anchor tenant of Access Management, we take pride in our business relationship with them which is built on sound business ethics.
“Anyone who wishes to imply differently should do so on their own.”

Alan's ethos is epitomised in the words of Nelson Mandela; "I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die."
