Zimbabwe joins world in celebrating Workers Day

As Zimbabwean workers join the rest of the world in commemorating International Workers Day, The Zimbabwe congress of Trade Unions says this election year it will make sure that a government that doesn’t love workers is also not loved by workers.

This year’s celebrations follow a doctors’ strike and an impasse which saw nurses at public hospitals approaching the High Court to seek nullification of a decision by the country’s Vice-President Constantino Chiwenga to expel them from their jobs for participating in a labor strike.

Although the nurses have withdrawn their court bid, teachers have also threatened to embark on a similar action and there are indications that they will be met with the same fate.
