Article: Vavi suspension confirmed by Numsa

Numsa, a strong ally of Zwelinzima Vavi, confirmed on Thursday that the Cosatu general secretary has been suspended, while an official statement from the trade union federation was still awaited.

"He [Vavi] was suspended," National Union of Metalworkers of SA (Numsa) general secretary Irvin Jim said.
 
On Monday, Numsa reportedly said it would propose that the union withdraw its subscription from Cosatu if the trade union federation failed to cancel Wednesday's meeting. Numsa's subscription to Cosatu was thought to be about R80,000 a month.

Jim on Thursday said Numsa was "reflecting" on what happened at the CEC meeting before making a decision.

Looks like nothing more than a hollow threat from Numsa.

Vavi had been put on "special leave" following a Congress of SA Trade Unions special central executive committee (CEC) meeting on Wednesday.

So he gets to sit at home and get paid. Looks like Numsa's nice R80K will be supporting Vavi while he's on 'special leave'
