The National Education, Health and Allied Workers Union (NEHAWU) has given the African National Congress (ANC)’s Bheki Mtolo a 48-hour ultimatum to retract criticism he leveled against public servants this past weekend.
Speaking at an ANC event commemorating Nelson Mandela’s birthday in Kokstad, the ANC’s provincial secretary general blamed NEHAWU for inefficiencies in the public sector.
This included long queues at home affairs, a lack of service delivery at the health department, and poor care at social security agency, South African Social Security Agency (SASSA).
NEHAWU provincial secretary Ayanda Zulu threatened to declare Mtolo a persona non-grata who would be barred from addressing the union’s gatherings if he missef the deadline to retract his comments and to publicly apologize.
“We have issued a statement as NEHAWU, giving Mr Mtolo 48 hours to withdraw this statement, otherwise the union is going to explore other avenues on the basis that we view this as defamation of the union, because he singles out that it’s Nehawu,” Zulu said.
