BPL Union Says No Foreign Workers
Union Chief for the line staff workers at Bahamas Power and Light Paul Maynard raised the alarm at the company when foreign workers showed up at the Clifton plant to maintain the engines which he claimed are to be abandoned and replaced. This was done after dismissing Bahamians who were working for BPL at a cost of 70 million dollars across the board and now bringing foreign workers. Mr. Maynard said it ain’t gonna happen. By week’s end it was said the plan was on hold. No word on what next. There as also a fire at the plant on the evening of Friday 7 September. Now word of the cause and what the effect will be.
