BOPEU calls for unity

Giving a solidarity message on Saturday at Botswana Federation of Trade Unions (BFTU) special delegates congress at Ave Maria Pastoral Centre, Marenga said unity and solidarity are their greatest strengths.

“It is in unity and solidarity that workers have the audacity to face powerful employers, such as DPSM or Botswana Savings Bank or Debswana or Shoprite-Checkers; or powerful individuals within those organisations, such as managers of Choppies or Central Bank Governor. It is unity that gives us respect in society; that make employers treat us with care; that make Governments think twice before introducing a bad law,” Marenga said.
