Officials at Tongaat Hullet have expressed dismay at the manner in which Retired Army Major Faster Gono is wreaking havoc at the company.
Gono is the secretary general of the Zimbabwe Sugar Milling industry Workers Union.
Gono told shocked officials last week he was prepared to instruct members of the union to burn the company’ s sugarcane plots as a way of protesting at the failure by Tongaat to address workers’ grievances.
“Gono is causing mayhem here.We do not know what to do because he says he is above the law.
Last week he threatened to instigate members of his union to set ablaze our sugarcane plots,” said a senior Tongaat official.
Last week Gono accused Tongaat officials of exploiting workers.
