The protest began at the Fawvwei Junction community road, leading to traffic gridlock and commuters stranded as protesters marched toward Government House to demand urgent intervention over recent killings in communities.

Some of the angry protesters said they were unhappy over the continuous attacks and killings by gunmen in their communities.

They urged the government to intervene before the situation gets out of control.

The demonstrators carried placards with various inscriptions. They marched toward the Rayfield Government House to demand urgent security intervention from Governor Caleb Mutfwang-led administration.
