4 245  People Register To Vote In Masvingo Province In October

Masvingo Province recorded a significant rise in new voter registrants for the month of October 2022.

According to statistics released by the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) provincial office 4 245 people registered as voters in October.

ZEC Deputy Elections Officer Maxwell Ncube confirmed the statistics and said there was a notable increase of 26.2 percent in new voter registrants. Ncube said:

The increase could be a result of stakeholders participating in mobilizing registrants as some of them are even bussing people to registration centers.

It could be also awareness amongst registrants now that we are nearing the 2023 general elections; they want to register so as to meet the deadline.

We continue to encourage those willing to participate in the 2023 elections to register as voters to enable them to make decisions for the country’s future as well as participate as candidates.

The ZEC provincial office also recorded a total of 930 transfers, 523 of which are female and 407 male.
