The National Union of Public Service and Allied Workers (NUPSAW) Union has described the retrenchment of almost 5,000 workers at the South African Post Office (SAPO) as the government's failure to protect state-owned entities.The employees were let go from the beginning of the year as SAPO had to close down branches in various provinces. The Union says it's shameful that the entity is cutting jobs when the country is faced with an unemployment crisis. Morio Sanyane spoke to Solly Malema of the National Union of Public Service and Allied Workers.
