On 16 April, in the Balama district of Cabo Delgado province, Naparama joined local communities to block the reopening of the Syrah Resources-owned Twigg graphite mine, O País reported. Residents of Balama town accuse the company of failing to pay fair compensation to families resettled away from the mine site and of unjust worker dismissals. Despite a third round of negotiations led by Cabo Delgado Governor Valige Tauabo, the deadlock remains. The Balama mine has been shuttered for seven months, when affected communities erected barricades around the site. These grievances are long-standing and were expressed in a strike at the mine in September 2022.
