EFF to take court action against big companies over listeriosis
The Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) plan to launch a class action lawsuit against major companies who were complict on the spread of listeriosis. During a media briefing on Thursday, EFF leader Julius Malema said that government and the National Consumer Commission were to blame for the spread of the disease and the death of 180 people for the "slow pace" in containing the bacteria.
"Rainbow Chicken Limited and Enterprise must take full responsibility for the outbreak and compensate those affected and the families of those who died," said Malema. The EFF says that court papers will be filed by their lawyers by this week.
It is troubling me to see people all over South Africa dying and being hospitalised because of the food that are manufactured in our country. I support EFF by taking the companies to court.

I fully support the EFF on this one, those responsible must be held accountable. The South African public deserves at least this.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree also as the people died because of the food produced by the Enterprise company but what I don't understand is where Julius said that the government is at fault.
