COSATU Statement on the Commencement of the Commission of Inquiry into State Capture

The Congress of South African Trade Unions welcomes the long overdue commencement of the Commission of Inquiry into State Capture. The people of South Africa deserve some answers and clarity about the economic vandalism that has happened over the last couple of years.

This inquiry will hopefully dig deeper and expose the decay that has crippled both our economy and our country. The country is teetering on the brink because of a flagging economy and many people are struggling to feed and clothe their families because of the effects of State Capture and Corruption.

We hope that the Commission of Inquiry into State Capture will make a big difference and unlike the Seriti Commision will enlighten us and expose the architects and beneficiaries of State Capture.

COSATU wants to see all the robber barons, swindlers and their enablers, who have stolen from the poor sent to jail where they belong.
