RE: COSATU CANNOT CONTINUE TO BE ABUSED BY ILL DISCIPLINCED LEADERS

COSATU in Kwa-Zulu-Natal is very shocked and disappointed at the behaviour and conduct of Cde Willy Madisha. He has consistently violated and vandalized the federation’s CEC decision of having to step aside until the commission of inquiry has made its findings. Instead of complying with such condition he has consistently attacked COSATU position and articulations in the public domain.

This kind of conduct re-affirms our decision and position as COSATU KZN that Cde Madisha has overstayed his welcomed in this federation. This behaviour and conduct has to be condemned and not to be tolerated by any progressive trade union movement. Cde Madisha has always been inviting his own termination in the leadership of COSATU. His behaviour is depicting the worst leader ever produced by COSATU since her formation 22 years ago. To us he has taken this federation into disrepute and as such has completely host confidence in him as the leader of the federation, COSATU.
