There was a confrontation between a businessman and local politicians in Likoni over Bidi Badu Club, whose closure had been ordered for by the authorities a month ago.

The over 200 protestors, led by Bofu MCA Hemed Salama, his Shika Adabu counterpart Mwalimu Hamadi and former Likoni MCA Omar Ochieng converged at Mshale grounds at around 10 am on Monday, May 17, demanding that the local security officials explain why the club was still operating despite the order.
