NATIONAL NEWS - The Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu) is expected to make a formal request to the African National Congress (ANC) to request that Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa attends and addresses its gatherings from now on.
On Tuesday, the federation held a briefing following its special central executive committee meeting.
The union has decided to bar President Jacob Zuma from addressing its events.
The decision comes after the president was booed and heckled at a May Day rally in Bloemfontein earlier this month.
