BMWU reiterates call for Lucara MD to resign

Lucara rejected BMWU demands for the mining company recently following the mining union petition. Some of the demands included Lahri's resignation, halting the restructuring of the security department and availing of the Lucara investigations and security optimisations report.

The union has always maintained that Lahri should quit her job citing that she was unable to manage the mining company. In an interview with Mmegi this week, BMWU president Joseph Tsimako said that Lahri has outgrown competence as she has worked at the facility for a considerable amount of time. "Remember in such offices one should not overstay in the same position for a long period of time," he added.
