2023 Elections To Be Held With No Legal Reforms - ZLHR Director

2023 Elections To Be Held With No Legal Reforms - ZLHR Director

The Executive Director of the Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights (ZLHR) Roselyn Hanzi has said the 2023 General Elections will be held with no legal reforms.

The Constitution of Zimbabwe stipulates that any electoral legislation passed after the President proclaims an election date will not apply to those elections.

On Wednesday, 31 May, President Emmerson Mnangagwa proclaimed the 23rd of August 2023 as the day for the country’s general elections.

According to Proclamation 4 of 2023 which is contained in Statutory Instrument 85 of 2023,  the nomination day, when candidates are registered to stand in the election, will be on 21 June.

02 October 2023 has been set as the date for a run-off for the election of the office of the President if such a poll becomes necessary.

Posting on Twitter after the proclamation of the election date, Hanzi said the 2023 elections are being held with no legal reforms. She wrote:

In terms of sec 157 of the Constitution, after an election has been called, as has happened, no change to Electoral Law or any other law on elections will apply to that election. This means that the 2023 elections are being held with no legal reforms.

Parliament is currently working on the Electoral Amendment Bill which seeks to operationalise the latest constitutional amendments for the election of 10 youth members to the National Assembly, one from each province, as well as the continued election of 60 women, six from each province, to the National Assembly under a quota system, among others.

Following the proclamation of the election date, work on the amendments has become an academic exercise when it comes to voting on 23 August.

I want to accept CCC Political Party's President, Advocate Nelson Chamisa who has declared his readiness to engage ZANU PF by the horns come 23 August 2023. [ CITIZENS ARE ENCOURAGED NOT TO VOTE FOR GOLD MAFIA CRIMINALS AND MONEY LAUNDERERS ] Let all Zimbabweans accept what is on the ground. Let us vote with vigor and beat ZANU PF all systems out. Let us continue reforming after we have, together, beaten ZANU PF. [ THE BUSH LAWYER4CCC ].

It means Zimbabweans shall go to the General Elections without reforms. Political Parties must use their time wisely. [ ZANU PF MUST PREPARE FOR ORDINARY LIFE WHILE CCC POLITICAL PARTY PREPARES FOR FORMING THE NEX GOVERNMENT ]. I hope citizens have not been surprised with my supposition. Citizens are tired with ZANU PF. They now want change/shanduko. [ THE BUSH LAWYER4CCC ].

Well now, since you ****s, aka citizens, have done sod-all to even keep viable opposition alive, dating back to the 1980's, did the same about vote rigging over that time as well, and now whinge plaintively, who's really to blame here? You've had more than FOUR DECADES, which is more than enough time, imho, but you allowed zpf to take over the press and snuff out dissenting voices. You did NOTHING WHATSOEVER, to stop it then, and now gawp like spastics in a fairground, at the self-inflicted mess! Instead of snivelling, I'd suggest you make more of an effort to (1) Put CREDIBLE opposition together, contesting ALL seats, (2) Vote for them en masse, not just a few of you! (3) Have measures ready, to STOP VOTE RIGGING! (3) Have measures in place to monitor the counting as well. I bet you ****s can't, and won't do this, but will bleat when zpf are back in place, and more ruin for Zimbabwe follows!
