There was pandemonium at the Chikomba Rural District Council Offices as angry residents besieged the premises and threatened to assault senior officials.
Chikomba RDC employees were forced to scurry for cover as angry residents ran amok last week.
The residents accused senior officials at Chikomba RDC in Chivhu of maladministration and corruption.
The residents also demanded the immediate resignation of Chikomba RDC Chief Executive Officer, Luckson Mutara whom they accused of rampant corruption.
The march, which degenerated into chaos, was organised by Chikomba Residents and Ratepayers Association.
“There is no going back until our grievances are addressed, ” said a Chivhu resident.
