The residents organised a seat in at the council offices demanding to be addressed by the new Mayor of Harare Herbert Gomba.

They were further demanding for the immediate dismissal of the district officer who they claim never took serious sewer burst reports by residents resulting in sewage spreading wide across the township into people’s homes.

At least twenty people have died in the country from cholera which started off from Glenview.
