Former BOPEU GS accuses president of harassment

Mbereki says his decision to leave the union was a forced move following an alleged series of harassment and bullying levelled against the union's president, Martin Gabobake. It is said that Gabobake, who previously held the position of treasurer-general is using his power to settle past scores with those who might have "stepped on his toes" before he ascended to the helm of the union.

Mbereki handed in his resignation letter on Monday following a special national executive committee meeting held on Saturday. In his resignation letter dated March 22, 2025 seen by Mmegi, Mbereki states that “this follows a series of acts of harassment and bullying by the president Mr Martin Gabobake”.
