*ZCTU Warn Of National Shutdown In January 2019* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?yb The Country’s largest labour representative organisation, the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU) has warned President Emmerson Mnangagwa to expect a crippling nationwide strike in January next year. In an interview with Newsday, ZCTU president Peter Mutasa said workers are facing a bleak future with more companies expected to fold in 2019. Said Mutasa ---------- Latest itel A06 on Pindula: 32GB storage, 4GB RAM $69 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 ---------- > The country is coming to a total shutdown. We are not pessimistic, but we saw this in 2008 and all the signs are heading towards a second 2008. Unfortunately, in this period, we don’t think that we have leadership. The State is not well coordinated, so we are facing a very serious crisis. > We think citizens are going to rise to the occasion. For the workers, the ZCTU has given its leadership a mandate that we must coordinate all workers and unions, even those that are not within our federations. We want to unite all unions; unite the poor, the farmers, the students — all the progressive forces and wage a struggle to force the government to the negotiating table. > This January, workers should just down tools. We should just stop working until there are economic reforms. You have seen what has happened with the doctors; we are going to see teachers doing the same, civil servants — we will be calling on all workers to stop working and demand economic reforms. So it’s going to be a very sensitive January. *Related* *Teachers Threaten To Strike In January Despite Meeting Mnangagwa, Demand Salaries In US Dollars* *More: Newsday* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
