Numsa held a protest at Unisa's main campus in Pretoria in solidarity with former employee GuguNcube.
Johannesburg - The National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa held a protest on Friday at the University of South Africa main campus in Pretoria in solidarity with former employee Gugu Ncube.
Ncube worked at the Unisa Centre for Early Childhood Education when the alleged sexual harassment occurred. Ncube was arrested and charged with public indecency earlier this month after she protested at the Union Buildings against Unisa's handling of her complaint. Ntlokose said that Ncube, like many survivors of sexual assault and harassment who have taken the brave step of naming their abuse or abusers, has routinely encountered disbelief, trivialization or minimization of her experience, doubt and undermining of her account.
