The line has been drawn that the management of Delta Impex has completely lost its contract with the National Port Authority (NPA) and may fighting a fruitless battle, as writings on the wall point to.
In an effort to keep in touch with the management of the NPA over the abrupt cancellation of his contract, the opposite occurred yesterday when officers of the Liberia Seaport Police manhandled the General Manager of Delta Impex, Charles Mochiah and whisked him out of the premises of the port.
The scene was frenzy and characterized by display of unbridled power in total disregard to dignity and civility when LSP officers failed to husk the Delta boss, as it is under obligation to do.
The confrontation was in total response to orders Deputy Director Operations, Madam Mary Broh that the Delta boss be put of the port premises.
Our reporter said Madam Mary Broh upon hearing of the presence of Mochiah in the premises of the Port, ran out of her office and order Mr. Mochiah to leave the port because he does not have business to do with management.
Apparently realizing that she could not succeed in getting him out, she ordered the officers of the Seaport Police of the NPA to immediately get Mr. Mochiah, or else lose their job if failed to execute her orders.

However, our reporter said it took the Director of the Sea Port Police, Oxford Pearl to calm the tension between two individuals, and later managed to convince the Delta Impex boss to get out of the port's premises.
During the tussle with the top manager of the port, Mr. Mochiah said he has an access pass, which allows him to tour any part of the port.
. "So it surprising for her to fight me on grounds that I should not enter the premises of the port, where I have business to do with the management", he said.
When the Public Relations Department of the NPA contacted about the situation, Mr. Jacob Walker said his management was not prepared to comment at that very moment but promised to speak at the appropriate time.
