Irate Lilongwe City Council staff have sealed Mayor Desmond Bikoko’s office and taken away his mayoral vehicle accusing him of being corrupt and selfish.
The drama started as Bikoko and other Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) councilors including Namakhwa grabbed land in Area 46 and sold it without approval.
According to information at hand, Bikoko and the said Councillors were pushing the CEO Moza Zeleza to sign offer letters but Zeleza has been refusing saying the land still belongs to Ministry of Lands and allocation to Lilongwe City Council wasn’t complete.
Yesterday Bikoko and his five councillors sealed the office of CEO to force him to offer them the letters.
The development angered workers who on Wednesday morning stormed the Civic offices, demanding the Mayor to leave and surrender his mayoral vehicle keys.
More details to come….
