Lesotho's capital, Maseru remains tense following violent protests by factory workers yesterday. The Association of Employers and Business and Textile Exporters lodged an urgent court application to prevent the government from implementing a minimum wage hike for factory workers. This would be between one thousand two hundred to two thousand rand a month. We are joined on the line now by Molefi Lebonejoang, a spokesperson for the Lesotho Wholesale, Catering and Allied Workers Union (LEWCAWU). He is in Maseru, Lesotho.
