Malema miners rights

Malema called on mine workers to strike until mining giants bow to a 12,500 rand (1,526 US dollar) basic salary demand. Malema, who was expelled early this year from the ruling African National Congress (ANC) for ill-discipline, has quickly become a leading figure for workers.
