Cameroonian Workers Pushed To Slavery By Chinese Employers


 The workers complain of catechist pay, no permanent contracts, no insurance cover, no protective jackets or helmets, and constant threats of dismissal among others.

Cameroonians working for Top International Engineering Corporation Cameroon Ltd-TIEC, the Chinese company contracted by the government to rehabilitate the Molyko Omnisports stadium in Buea, are calling on the authorities to intervene and put a stop to the near inhuman treatment they are subjected to by their employers.

The Cameroonian labourers complain that their conditions of work are not the best and this is in spite of the huge sums the government is paying the Chinese company for the project.

Complaining bitterly to this reporter, one of the labourers, whose name we are withholding for obvious reasons, listed some grievances that they are forced to cope with under the seemingly adamant and cunning Chinese.
