The Nelson Mandela Bay Metro in Port Elizabeth will tighten security today after threats were made against non-striking members of the SA Municipal Workers’ Union.

This as about 90-percent of Samwu-affiliated workers in the Metro continued to ignore the strike, which has now entered its second week.

Municipality spokesperson, Kupido Baron says acts of intimidation have also been reported at a local clinic.

Baron says they heard reports that some patients were chased out of the clinic by striking workers.
