COTU criticises Kenya's persistence on EU's EPA deal

Kenya's umbrella body of trade unions has criticised the government for its persistent stand on the Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) with the European Union.

Central Organisation of Trade Unions (COTU) Secretary General Francis Atwoli said Kenya, just like her neighbours, should instead act cautiously as the agreement will not only turn the country into a dumping destination for unsolicited products but also kill its industrialisation dream.
