fawuBDLive reports that the Food and Allied Workers Union (Fawu) is determined to drag out the completion of the merger between Anheuser Busch InBev (AB InBev) and SABMiller in a bid to secure benefits for its members.  

Katishi Masemola, general secretary of Fawu, says he will attempt to interdict the implementation of the merger if the Competition Tribunal approves the transaction without considering his union’s requests for benefits in lieu of their participation in the SAB Zenzele black economic empowerment (BEE) scheme.  He and his union’s members are determined to secure some benefits from the BEE scheme.
