Mota-Engil Workers down tools

Malawian workers working with Mota- Engil in Mwanza staged a sit-in over what they call Mota’s Importation of foreign workers at the expense of Locals.

The atmosphere was so chaotic that the police were called to provide security.

Local employees were against the importation of 100 Portuguese to be working as operators and their coming led to a lay off of 100 Malawian Operators.

Beside this, locals are protesting against the bringing in of another 200 people from South Africa to work as Security guards.

” The 200 local guards have already lost their jobs and replaced by South African guards. This has angered us. We shall fight for our rights till the last drop of our blood”, said one source who opted for anonymity.

When approached for comment Mota-Engil official at the camp Seamons Silver refused to comment.

The employee said the strike would extend to Zalewa camp on Thursday where another team of Mota is working.
