Zikalala calls for peaceful ways to settle RBM unrest
The KwaZulu-Natal Premier is hoping for a speedy resolution to the violent unrest that's affected Richards Bay Minerals.
Sihle Zikalala briefed the media on the latest developments at the mining group in Richards Bay yesterday.
He says he's pleased that police were able to nab the suspects believed to be fuelling tensions in the Kwam-Buyazi community.

Zikalala says they'll meet again with management at the mine and the community's traditional leaders:
"We are grateful that the concerned stakeholders remain committed and supportive of the role of government to play the resolution and facilitate the dispute," he says.
Two mineworkers were shot last month by cable thieves after it had reopened.
RBM workers were targeted during a community dispute late last year.
