It is under a woman and a Sangoma that COSATU allowed government to freeze, the wages of government employees indefinitely, and to implement IMF austerity measures. IMF is a Colonial Anti-black, Anti-african and Anti- Worker Institute
COSATU has betrayed workers under a leadership of Zongiswa Losi, who was elected as a President because she is a woman, besides her proximity to President Ramaphosa, and capital and now an African Traditional leaderI raise her gender and religion simply to show that women should not lead for the sake of leading, from a workers perspective Losi is leading an on slaught, on workers and it is not her gender failing her but her class bias to capital. Even her new acknowledged African spirituality, has not opened her eyes to the brutality of Capital and Neocolonialism
As for her new found spirituality, the preposition would be that she will align more with her people, and act with conviction in support of the exploited and oppressed workers, as an African spiritualist. But the opposite is happening I presume that's why Marx concluded that (religion is the opium of the masses). Losi is a clear example of how Gender politics devoid of race and class are so dangerous, and now you can't blame her simply because she is a woman, even though it's her gender that was used to propel her to lead a Trade Union, but one would have thought her spiritual awakening, would make her more progressive
Now she is more anti-workers than males who came before her, such as Vavi and Sdumo who never compromised workers to this extend. Workers are under siege, and COSATU is happy with the status quo

02-21 08:37:24It is unheard of to allow one party in the sealed agreement to cancel it on the last lap, after implementing it for two years. This is a joke. No unions ?
