COSATU Mpumalanga Accelerates its Elections Campaign in Support of the ANC Decisive Victory in the Elections
11 July 2016

The Congress of South African Trade Unions in Mpumalanga is convening extra -ordinary meetings to mobilize its members and the general public to support the African National Congress in the 2016 Local Government Elections. The COSATU campaign includes blitzes at taxi ranks, bus ranks, malls and the door to door campaign. On the 12 and14 July 2016 COSATU in Mpumalanga will convene Regional Shopsteward Council meetings which will be addressed by the COSATU National Office Bearers.

Workers who are COSATU members in Mpumalanga have vowed to defend the African National Congress because it is the only political organisation that truly represents the aspirations of the working class and the poor.
