Nigeria: Workers at Lafarge Africa’s Mfamosing cement plant have complained about an alleged dominance of expatriates at the company. The workers say that most of the departments have been ‘taken over’ by foreign staff, according to the Punch newspaper. Affected divisions include utilities, security, logistics, finance and safety departments. However, Folashade Ambrose-Medebem, the director for Communications, Public Affairs and Sustainable Development at Lafarge Africa, has denied the claims. She said out of the 95 expatriate allocations approved by the Ministry of Interior for the Mfamosing plant only seven of the positions are occupied by foreign workers, a figure less than the 10% approved expatriate allocation rate.
