Today I read that bra Thabo Leshilo is taking Agang to CCMA because they did not pay him. He says that he has defaulted on his bond, his cell number is frozen and he has not paid his kids school fees. Whilst as revolutionaries we must fight for fair labour practice at all times but in this case I honestly think this is not a labour matter. We are here talking about a former editor of the most successful daily newspaper. We are talking someone who was even privileged to leave the country and study overseas. His issue goes far deeper than Labour Relation Act. This is an experienced journalist who goes out of his way to join a brand new political party and decides to be an employee. Who in their right mind can pin their hopes on a new start party to an extent that you rely on it for a steady income? Politics is an extremely risky project and anyone who takes himself seriously must at least do basic research. I dont even want to go to the question of how an experienced editor with overseas masters degrees cant pay his bond ONLY after one month salary cut...did you not read Capitalist Niger (its actually very popular with the lot that studied overseas)? *to say I am disappointed is an understatement. Like I advised before, having a masters degree from an overseas university is no guarantee of being educated...Its only a guarantee of being certificated!*
