• The State Department of Housing and Urban Development is verifying the allegations.
• Affected applicants who paid deposits for units in the Boma Yangu Programme have raised concerns about fairness and transparency.
• The protests follow the handover of 4,500 homes in Mukuru as part of a larger project to deliver 13,248 units.
