Thats the olny language goverment understand

Unleashing the police on protesters is not going to resolve grievances...instead will aggravate the situation. Lest we forget Marikana.

Yini umsuka wes'teleka? Amaphoyisa Ngeke ayixazulule inkinga.

Just like Marikana ne?

Just give those workers what they want🤷🤷🤷 the cost of living is showing them hell while to you guys are misusing funds in different portfolios...some of us are willing to donate to their plight to keep on striking until their demands are met...Aluta Continua!!!!

nehawu is affiliated to the Anc labour desk -cosatu, sort it through the alliance honourable minister

U can only end srike by sitting on the table and negotiate ..... Cele will just bring chaos and panic ..... and escalate...... u sit down you talk ..... countless time

One of the most useless Ministers ....bring back Motsoaledi to this portfolio

He will make things worse

Calling for a massacre?

The last time a politician asked for help from a colleague, 34+ people died.

The minister must lesson the worker's they want 10 percent so to call police it can't help

The courts actually contradicted the strike as unlawful. Where rare the police to protect vulnerable patients and compassionate staff.most of those nurses look overweight to me. They look like fat doughballs. Doesn't look like they do much work.

Fire the lot of them and throw them in jail. Absolutely disgusting
