No End To BOPEU Leadership Woes

This follows chalking off of the suspension of the union’s former president, Masego Mogwera and the dismissal of former general secretary, Topias Marenga.

While Mogwera and Marenga believe that the judgement reinstated them into BOPEU office, the other faction led by Olefile Monakwe remains resolute that the two are not welcome. The High Court delivered a judgement in which, amongst other things, it declared that the April 27, 2019 decision to suspend Mogwera as president pending disciplinary action was unlawful and set it aside. It also declared as null and void the proceedings of the same National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting. In an interview, Mogwera said she was ready to return to office and resume her duties this week.
