At least 120 officials and civil servants already living in Diaca administrative post, Mocímboa da Praia district, in northern Cabo Delgado province, complain that minimum conditions for their staying there are lacking.
Among the services in short supply, these officials, most of them teachers, mention banking, health and commercial services. Their concerns were raised a few days ago at a meeting with the Secretary of State for Cabo Delgado, province António Supeia.
Although Diaca is one of the few administrative posts in Mocímboa da Praia district that still has some residents, life there is practically at a standstill. Commerce and banking services, for example, depend to a large extent on the main towns of Mocímboa da Praia and Mueda, where traders buy products in bulk and carry out financial transactions.
António Supeia was in Mocímboa da Praia last Friday, where, in addition to meeting civil servants already working in the district, he also witnessed a campaign to clean up the main town of Mocímboa da Praia, as part of the reconstruction and restoration of basic services required for the large-scale return of the population to that part of the country.
Although Supeia professed confidence in a gradual return to normality, there is still no putative date for the return of the general population to Mocímboa da Praia, where civil servants still report experiencing a general climate of insecurity.
