Malema denies EFF forming a union

He said: 'We are working with Amcu (the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union). We are encouraging our members to join Amcu.'

EFF members were putting pressure on the leadership to form a union, but 'we are telling them to relax and focus on building the organisation,' Malema said. There was room for a trade union movement in the country, which was why Amcu was doing so well in the mining sector, he said in the report. Full Fin24 report
