They demand a meeting with the mayor, Mr Linda Dhlamini after a meeting with the current Municipal Manager, Ms Gugulethu Mlongo-Ntshangase.
Members of the Lekwa Black Business Forum (LBBF) vacated the Lekwa Municipal building in Standerton and Sakhile as well as the Department of Public Works and the Traffic Department this morning.
They demand a meeting with the mayor, Mr Linda Dhlamini.
This comes after a meeting two weeks ago with the Municipal Manager, Ms Gugulethu Mlongo-Ntshangase.
In this meeting they listed their demands which allegedly included fair tender processes among others.
Apparently Ms Mlongo-Ntshangase subsequently responded that she would forward their grievances to the Executive Mayor.
About 40 members of LBBF also closed down the R23 Johannesburg Road leaving frustration in their wake.
The Standerton Police have arrived on the scene.
