More than 100 Namibia Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) earlier this month defected from Namibia Public Workers Union(Napwu) to join a rival union, in a move described as a “vote of no confidence” in Napwu.
The workers were allegedly not happy with the manner in which Napwu handled the month-long strike, with some saying the union did little to advance the interests of the workers.
As it stands, the Public Service Union of Namibia (PSUN) is on course to assume the bargaining authority at NBC, a position held by Napwu since the formation of NBC.
