Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) chairperson Justice Rita Makarau said that they will be deploying four officers on biometric voter registration education per ward.
Said Makarau:
The officers will be visiting every ward, raising awareness among the electorate about the new BVR system. The campaigns are going on, but we are preparing to have a blitz that will go hand-in-hand with voter registration exercise in the next few weeks. We have campaigns running on radio and television, but this blitz will reach out to people. I do not have the exact figures because the exercise is being done at provincial level, but we are targeting at least four officers per ward which is quite a big number.
ZEC provincial officer for Midlands, Mrs Dorcas Sibanda told The Herald yesterday that they were yet to get communication to start recruiting.
