WE’RE STILL HOPEFUL OF GETTING BONUSES - STAFF

MBABANE – Swaziland Electricity Company (SEC) employees believe divine intervention will give them their long-awaited bonuses.
This was communicated during the prayer day and long service awards ceremony held by the company at the Convention Centre yesterday.

The issue of the bonuses was on every speaker’s lips at the event, as they all had something to say about it.
Speaking on behalf of the Swaziland Electricity Supply Maintenance and Allied Workers’ Union (SESMAWU), Maureen Nkambule asked pastors to pray for SEC employees to get their bonuses, as that would in turn increase the tithes they contributed in their different churches. Nkambule believed that informing pastors about their challenges was not just blowing hot air but would guarantee success. “Please pray with us, our employer owes us bonuses, maybe this is because some of us do not offer tithes and this is why things are like this,” Nkambule said.

She also informed pastors that they were faced with bad luck (ematfunti lamnyama) and needed prayer. She added that at times they suspected that there was something they were not doing right, although they had done their part. She said despite that, their employer did not pay them.

Hammering that same nail was Pastor Shodi Msibi, who encouraged the SEC management to pay employees their bonuses if money was available. Msibi stated that companies should work as if they were families. He narrated that fathers ordinarily had to ensure that everyone in the family was well cared for, and added that employers and employees had to give to each other.
