The reported decision by Numsa’s central committee to assume control amid the leadership rift raises serious questions about internal democracy and accountability. businessday.co.za/news/2026-… – at Nyanga, South Africa
A trade union belongs to its members, not its leaders. Constitutional processes, collective leadership and shop-floor unity must prevail. Workers’ interests must come first. ✊🏾 #Numsa #WorkersRights – at Nyanga, South Africa
The Sibiya bail ruling highlights a fundamental principle: bail is not a declaration of guilt or innocence. The law must protect complainants and witnesses while safeguarding the accused’s constitutional rights. – at Guguletu, South Africa
From a working-class perspective, justice must be equal, evidence-based and free from intimidation. Nobody is above the law, and nobody should be convicted in the court of public opinion. ⚖️🇿🇦

Build what nobody can take away from you: knowledge, skills, reputation, relationships and resilience.
Positions change. Contracts end. Titles disappear.
Build your value, not just your title. Your position may end, but your impact can live on.
