EWN reports that a protest at Eskom's Kusile power station entered its sixth day on Monday, with employees demanding better working conditions and skills development.
About 600 employees have taken to the streets in Emalahleni, barricading roads leading to the site. Police spokesperson Gerald Sedibe said 25 people have been arrested so far and were released on R1,000 bail each. He indicated that protestors have been intimidating other workers. They apparently also blockaded the transport ferrying Kusile employees and forced them out of the vehicles.
