12 years after Marikana massacre, Amcu Union President criticizes South African government as a "fake democracy" led by "fake revolutionaries," demanding accountability and justice.

12 years after South Africa's Marikana massacre where 34 Lonmin mineworkers were killed, Amcu Union President Joseph Mathunjwa criticizes the current government as a "fake democracy" led by "fake revolutionaries." He demands President Cyril Ramaphosa's accountability for his prior description of miners' protest as "criminal acts" and calls for justice, not just a monument. The government has paid over R300 million in compensation for the incident but has not issued an apology.
