The Coalition of Farmworkers met on Wednesday to reflect on the strike and to determine their way forward.

They have rejected the secret deal entered into between the ANC government and Cosatu saying it was at the expense of the poor.

The coalition said that Cosatu did not have a mandate to act on the behalf of the coalition and to conclude an agreement in the name of AgriSA.

The Coalition’s Mario Wanza adds that COSATU’S negotiations with the ANC they had no mandate and no right to intervene.

The farmworkers are coming together December the 16th to take forward the fight for a R150 per day.
