The Communist Party of Swaziland (CPS) has called for workers to unite against the latest act of “union bashing and victimisation” by the autocratic government of King Mswati III.
It said the people of Swaziland must stand with the country’s teachers who are facing intimidation by the regime, which recently banned Teachers’ Day celebrations.
“The regime has historically attempted to crush workers’ rights to peaceful association, assembly, movement, including the right to form and join unions,” said CPS general secretary Thokozani Kenneth Kunene.
