Is BOPEU planning to stand alone at PSBC? :: Mmegi Online

It has become apparent that the marriage of convenience between Botswana Public Employees Union(BOPEU), the self-proclaimed largest union in the public sector under the leadership of comrade Andrew Motsamai, and its mother body; Botswana Federation of Public Sector Unions(BOFEPUSU) under the leadership of comrade Johannes Tshukudu, has come to an end.

It was recently reported in the private media that the relationship has reached a boiling point with BOPEU stopping its subscription to BOFEPUSU. It is also alleged that such adverse administrative decision came as a result of the federation leadership decision to increase union’s subscription fee per member by P2.00, but BOPEU insisted on first consulting with its members on the matter.

The latest development, which I believe is timely and welcome is that BOFEPUSU has acquired the status and recognition of the second national federation by international standard.
