This, after they blockaded streets with burning objects, demanding the closing of the Emfuleni Local Municipality's offices over a lack of service delivery.

Several roads, including the Golden Highway, were blockaded by angry protesters.

Municipal communication's officer Makhosonke Sangweni tells OFM News that a group of angry people attempted to close the municipal offices this week, however, police quickly intercepted the angry group.

Vaal residents are demanding that the Emfuleni Local Municipality, which is under administration, must close its offices.

Sangweni adds they only heard about the demand on social media, and have not received any formal demand from the protesters.
