President Jacob Zuma is expected to welcome and congratulate South Africa’s latest two medal winners at the World Athletics Championships in Berlin – Mbulaeni Mulaudzi, who won gold in the 800 metres, and Khotso Mokoena who won silver in the long jump.
The Congress of South African Trade Unions will also be hosting a celebration party for the countries medals winners.
"We will join Caster Semenya in Team SA’s Hall of Fame. All three are a credit to their country and role models for young athletes".
“The federation fully endorses the call by Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma that “all of us South Africans, especially women, must rally around Caster and reject with the contempt they deserve the insinuations being made about her gender,” said COSATU spokesperson Patrick Craven.
