Bank counters in the country's financial center may have an "apparent" shortage of coins and banknotes due to the demonstrations that are preventing the normal movement of people and goods.

According to the President of the Confederation of Economic Associations - CTA, Agostinho Vuma, the message has already been taken to the President of the Republic, Filipe Nyusi.

He said that the supposed lack of money in the financial system could lead to overloaded branches that have managed to get around the protest barriers.

In this regard, Vuma said that the business community had appealed to the President of the Republic to find a better strategy for reaching a truce.

In Vuma's view, it is essential to allow the business machine to function. He added that the Ministry of the Interior has been tasked with providing escorts for traders on the country's main logistics corridors.

He noted at a press conference that projections point to losses estimated at 24.8 million dollars and thousands of jobs by December of this year as a result of the demonstrations.
