Owner of Omatapalo and controller of State works with an interest in the business of new registrations.

His name is Luís Nunes, the MPLA's number one in the province of Benguela and the Governor of the same province, and owner of an extensive business network whose budget volume transcends the revenue generated by his provincial executive. After having already been associated with several controversies involving the direct award of public works, Luís Nunes is once again 'embroiled' in the issue of new registrations. This time, with a stake in Omatapalo, SOCOPEÇAS.

Dário do Leste

The main shareholder of Omatapalo, Luís Nunes, and his peers in the management of public affairs are being appointed as the faces and main stakeholders in the business of the new number plates that the Government of Angola, through the National Police, recently presented in Luanda and which should cost citizens up to 50 thousand Kwanzas, Kieto Economia learned from various domestic political sources.
  
According to our source, through Socopeças, Luís Nunes must control the import of the raw material from which the new number plates will be made. Businessmen and politicians are not far behind when it comes to winning public tenders to supply goods and services to the State.

Luís Nunes is, at the moment, through the company Omatapalo, the main driver behind several public works, including the requalification of the Hospital for Pulmonary and Cardiovascular Diseases, 'Dom Cardeal do Nacimento', former Luanda Sanatorium, the requalification of the rainwater drainage ditches in the centrality of Zango Zero, in addition to improving access to the Operário neighborhoods and the streets of Benguela, in Luanda. All based on direct deliveries. In other words, works that did not follow a traditional public competition.

Nunes is not the only one in these deals. In negotiating the new number plates, the governor takes with him his 'colleagues' from the party Leonel da Rocha Pinto and Inocêncio de Brito.

The information obtained and verified by the sources reveals that Inocêncio de Brito is the owner of Multitrading, a company of which he is a partner, with 33% of the rights. It is with this company that the current "number one" of the National Police Inspectorate enters this business, which was once among the 24 firms qualified to run the controversial tinted glass business.

The criticism continues to rain. In the case of Luís Nunes, the complaints are piling up.
 
His company Omatapalo is mainly responsible for the misfortunes suffered by several residents of Zango 3 and surrounding areas. But the criticism doesn't just come from there.

Even from the urban center of Luanda, in the vicinity of Miramar, criticism arises, as the company Omatapalo has long held the works to improve the secondary and tertiary roads in that district and, after more than three years, is unable to deliver them to the owner , in this case the Municipality of Luanda.

Even so, and due to the good ties that, according to sources, it has with the main political power, the Presidential Palace, it is adding to the achievements of public works.
 
Criticism of Luís Nunes comes from everywhere. From small traders who are dedicated to the production and application of license plates informally to businesspeople with recognized competence but who are sidelined in business with the State.

On the part of small traders, the complaint is that the Police measure pushes several heads of families into "unemployment". There are companies that complain about a lack of transparency in the process that culminated in the selection of the four importing firms.
