I feel like they don’t really get the idea of unions. Workers uniting and all that.

I beg to disagree, but why don’t we discuss that further from the comfort of a nearby underground mine whose entrances I control?

This is the best summary I could come up with:


“They are still preventing them from coming to the surface,” NUM representative Mlulameli Mweli said, adding there were also female mine employees trapped underground.

“NUM calls for the law enforcement agencies in South Africa to intervene and go underground and arrest the hooligans who are holding our members against their will.”

Hericourt blamed members of the rival AMCU union, saying it has demanded to be the sole syndicate representing the miners at Modder East.

Meanwhile, AMCU has disputed Hericourt’s version of events, saying that there was a sit-in protest by miners in support of the union.

Rivalry between the NUM and AMCU unions was partly responsible for one of South Africa’s most horrific mining episodes, when 34 striking mineworkers were shot and killed by police at a platinum mine in Marikana in the North West province in 2012.

Six other mineworkers and two security officials were killed in days of violence that preceded the mass shooting by police.
