Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions has rejected the salary review and the new USD alliance that was proposed by the government this afternoon. Using their official Twitter handle, ZCTU said the government’s offer came a little too late and dismissed it as “Mazepe” which metaphorically likens the government’s offer to baby food which adults cant eat to satiety.
ZCTU tweeted:
Too late, too little We need an inclusive economic reform agenda that addresses economic fundamentals. Workers deserve decent salaries MAZEPE ayaToo late, too little
