Cosatu 'good as useless' if they don’t support us – Wits students
23 September 2016
Johannesburg – Cosatu must play a bigger role in the fight for free quality education or risk being exposed as hypocrites, former Wits University SRC president Mcebo Dlamini said on Friday.
As Wits University students gear up to march to the headquarters of the trade union federation, Dlamini urged Cosatu to mobilise workers to join the protests around free education.
"We want Cosatu to say when are they calling workers to mobilise."
Dlamini said should Cosatu choose to ignore students' pleas, "it will show that the alliance of the ANC does not take black people seriously".
