Chama cha Wafanyakazi kinachotajwa kuwa na ushawishi zaidi Nchini humo kimepinga kitendo cha Rais Kais Saied kushikilia Madaraka yote na kuonya juu ya tishio kwa Demokrasia Rais Saied ameendelea kusisitiza kitendo chake ya kusitisha shughuli za Bunge na kumfuta kazi Waziri Mkuu kilihitajika kukabiliana na majanga ya kiuchumi na kisiasa Chama kikubwa zaidi cha Siasa kimesema alichofanya Rais huyo ni Mapinduzi na kuwataka Wananchi kuungana na kulinda Demokrasia ====== Tunisia's influential labour union on Friday rejected key elements of President Kais Saied's seizure of near total power and warned of a threat to democracy as opposition widened against a move his foes call a coup. Saied this week brushed aside much of the 2014 constitution, giving himself power to rule by decree two months after he sacked the prime minister, suspended parliament and assumed executive authority. The crisis has endangered the democratic gains that Tunisians won in a 2011 revolution that triggered the "Arab spring" protests and has also slowed efforts to tackle an urgent threat to public finances, worrying investors. Saied has said his actions are needed to address a crisis of political paralysis, economic stagnation and a poor response to the coronavirus pandemic. He has promised to uphold rights and not become a dictator. Tunisia remains without a prime minister, though Saied has repeatedly said he will appoint one soon. The statement by the Tunisian General Labour Union (UGTT), one of the most powerful players in Tunisian politics, means most of the political class has now come out in opposition to Saied, including the major parties. The union, which has a million members, warned against consolidating power in the president's hands alone and said his declaration that he will appoint a commission to amend the political system was also a threat. "The UGTT rejects the president's monopoly on amendments and considers this a danger to democracy," it said. Source: Reuters
