Bad Roads: Security engages in cat and mouse chase with Zombo youth protesters

Developing story

Zombo peaceful demonstrators are engaging in a cat-and-mouse chase with security in Paidha Town Council now. 

The youths have vowed to carry on with the event notwithstanding the previous security warnings against holding the event.

The youths have been saying for ages, the government have failed to fulfil the promises of working on the road that its states have become worse lately coupled with the driving rain the area is experiencing.

They believe that this peaceful demonstration will send a clear signal to the government about the grievances of the people of Zombo about the devastating status of roads.

Security started deployment early in the morning to thwart the peaceful demonstration.
