The life in general
My name is Guerreiro Luis Abilio, with 27 years old, was born in Zambezia at Quelimane , married, resident in Zambezia in Sinacura Village, with no child.
I Studied until grade two of electrician course at Macuse Primary and Secondary Educations district of Zambezia province and did not go further because economical problems "money".
I join HALO as a Deminer then Paramedic by radio announcement.
I am a Catholic and a supporter of Renamo's Party. I do drink and smoke but no dance.
Before join to HALO I was not working was just helping as a part-time at CNE(National Commission of Elections) now I'm happy because I've got my own house which I built with the money which I end in HALO, I would like to have on my house all the best.
I fill my self good with the responsibility I've no problems at all on a team.
I use to have a problems or difficulties in attending my family when the campaign prolongs .
On my demining experience I already found three mines only at the first I was scared but my Supervisor Mr, Edmundo Calisto and team helped me a lot.
I use to have a refreshing training which makes my skills as paramedic better.
The HALO should re-check the salaries.
Nothing else to say.
