DispatchLive reports that staff at the Nelson Mandela Museum in Mthatha have gone on strike for better salaries and medical aid contributions.
Protest action started last week and the workers, who are members of the National Health and Allied Workers’ Union (Nehawu), vowed to continue until their demands were met.
