NEFF Commissar Michael Amushelelo, in a short reply to nbc News, explained why he is unable to support the G4S workers who downed tools on Monday morning.

The Namibia Fishing Industries and Fishermen's Union has accused Cavema fishing of unlawfully dismissing workers.

The union says the Walvis Bay-based company disregarded the recognition agreement signed with the workers.

Disgruntled workers protested at Walvis Bay to express their unhappiness.
