On operations:
At the moment our team is still working in Montepuez district, and the task name is Nairoto, that is a province in the north of Mozambique where the TBS teams are situated. The team is preparing an area next to the minefield under clearance at the moment, for the clearance of this new minefield will be used a mine detection dogs (MDD).
There is a well that was highly mined around, it was then used by Renamo Guerrillas and Frelimo soldiers to fetch water. The team is now concentrated on this area, after that the rest of the area will be reduced, we call it level two survey, then dogs intervention will be required.
The life in general
My name is Januario Camara, I’m 26 years old, married and father of a child. I’m Christian but I go to the church once in while, Frelimo is my political party. I have been working for HALO Trust since 1998, I thing God is helping me very much, when I joined The HALO Trust I was not thinking of being a supervisor, But now I’m team ten supervisor and my bosses saying I’m doing a very good job. I’ll to keep on well so one day I can be an operational manager.
On 25 of June is the independence day in Mozambique it is National holiday, we did not work, the all team was in the camp we spent the all day playing football, cards, chess etc, we all enjoyed the day.
My main target is to build a house for my family and me; I’m saving some money for it. I always pray to God to keep me working so I can realise my dream.
