Comment:

 Your choice of admin_level does not follow the usual conventions. I'd
 suggest to use them as follows:

   * 4 - State (Provincia)
   * 8 - Municipality
   * 9 - District (Distrito)
   * 10 - Suburb / Neighbourhood (Bairro)
   * 11 - Quarteirão

 Not sure about the Quarteirão. You might actually want to tag the boundary
 with place=neighbourhood instead of boundary=administrative if they are
 non-formal. Ask on the [https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
 tagging list] for advice if you are unsure.


 Also, have a look at http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Admin_level for a
 listing how admin_levels are used in other countries. It would be great if
 you could spend a minute and add Mozambique in the list, once you have
 fixed the admin levels.

 Closing as 'invalid' because it's actually a tagging problem.
