ZEC Requests For $8 Million To Extend Voter Registration
The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) has requested an additional $7,9 million to extend voter registration which ends on Tuesday 19 December 2017. This was said by Acting ZEC Chairperson Emmanuel Magade during a media briefing yesterday.
ZEC also revised the number of people it seeks to register for the 2018 elections from 7,2 million to around 5 million after latest registration figures came in at 4,3 million voters. Said Magade:
The field exercise showed us that there was need for us to probably extend the voter registration exercise beyond December 19. We have already sensitised the powers that be and we have already submitted a supplementary budget of $7,9 million and we are awaiting response, but all I can say is that Government in the past has been very sympathetic to us, particularly in this exercise and we remain cautiously optimistic that our request will be acceded to.
