A group of more than a hundred unknown citizens in the village of Mavucu, administrative post of Chaláua, yesterday tried to confront the caravan of the Administrator of Moma, in Nampula province.

Armed with bladed weapons such as canes, sticks and stones, the citizens surprised Abacar Chande's entourage when he was meeting with representatives of a mining company that was vandalized on Monday to find out about the incident.

According to Radio Mozambique According to the information, the Mozambique Republic Police who accompanied him had to fire to disperse the group that was approaching the administrator's entourage "at full speed".

Abacar Chande and his entourage were forced to leave the site for the Chalaua Administrative Post.

According to Chande, it's the same group of people who looted social infrastructures at the Administrative Post on Sunday.

Before that, on Wednesday morning, police officers at the vandalized company had found some citizens with gallons of fuel. It is assumed that they were preparing for more vandalizations.
