The retirees of the Mining Company of Bakwanga (MIBA) in the Congo are insistently demanding their end-of-career indemnities and their retirement pension, which have been due to them for several years. Unfortunately, these pensioners have faced difficulties in obtaining what they are entitled to.
According to the National President of the Union of Retired MIBA, Donat Katumbi, the National Social Security Fund (CNSS) cannot make these payments due to the non-payment of contributions by their former employer, MIBA, during their professional activity. . This situation puts retirees in a precarious situation, without access to a stable source of income after years of hard work.
In an attempt to find a solution to this impasse, Donat Katumbi is currently in Kinshasa to carry out administrative procedures. He hopes to be able to resolve this situation and allow MIBA retirees to receive the allowances and pensions that are legitimately due to them.
This situation highlights the difficulties faced by many retirees in the country. Despite their years of service and dedication, these individuals often find themselves forgotten or neglected, deprived of their rights and financial security.
It is crucial that measures are taken to protect the rights of pensioners and ensure that they can receive the benefits to which they are legitimately entitled. The competent authorities must ensure that employers respect their obligations to pay contributions in order to avoid such situations in the future.
The situation of MIBA retirees is a call to action for all stakeholders to ensure that the rights of retirees are respected and protected. It is essential to act quickly to resolve this problem and ensure a decent life for retirees who have devoted their lives to work and the development of their country.
It is time to recognize and value the work of retirees, granting them the rights and benefits necessary to allow them to live with dignity during their retirement years. The complaints of MIBA retirees should not be ignored, but rather taken seriously in order to find lasting solutions for all those who find themselves in a similar situation.
Retirees deserve our respect and recognition for their contribution to society. It is our duty to ensure that they receive the rights and benefits they deserve, and to guarantee a dignified and comfortable life for our elders.
