UNIONS from Southern Africa Development Community countries have criticised the Zimbabwe government for its role in the country’s deteriorating political situation. “The failure by the government to respect the rule of the judiciary … is bound to lead to the complete breakdown in social order and will make the country ungovernable,” the unions said in Durban where the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions is holding its 17th world congress. The deteriorating political and economic situation in the country “will have grave consequences to the people of Zimbabwe and the region as a whole,” the unions from the 14-nation SADC said.
