Voter Registration enters third phase,  2,3 million registered so far

The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) has started the third phase of the biometric voter registration exercise. According to ZEC, a total of 2 361 433 people have been registered as at November 13 after two voter registration phases. However, figures from remote and inaccessible centres are yet to be included in the final number of registered voters.

ZEC says that it is encountering challenges such as rain, electricity and lack of resources. Said ZEC:

Registrants could not go to registration centres to register in areas such as Mashonaland East, Mashonaland West and Matabeleland North and South. When it is cloudy and raining in areas where there is no electricity, it is a challenge to charge kit batteries with solar energy and this affects registration. Measures to counter this include transporting kits to areas with electricity and using hired vehicles to charge the batteries.
