Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC)<\/b> has extended the final nationwide mobile biometric voter registration exercise by five days, ahead of the 2023 harmonised elections.<\/p>\n

The voter registration was originally set to end on 21 March but the commission has announced that the exercise will now conclude on 26 March. In a Twitter post seen by Pindula News on 17 March, ZEC said:<\/p>\n

The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) would like to advice the public that the voter registration blitz and voter education has been extended by five days.<\/p>\n

ZEC previously complained about recurring unscheduled power cuts which the commission said were negatively affecting the ongoing final mobile voter registration blitz at some centres.<\/p>\n

ZEC said the situation was been worsened by the cloudy weather conditions prevailing in some parts of the country.<\/p>\n

ZEC listed about 5 000 centres that citizens who are eligible to vote can visit to register during the mobile biometric voter registration with Bulawayo having 71 centres.<\/p>\n

The voter registration process precedes the 2023 harmonised elections scheduled for July this year.<\/p>\n

The ongoing process comes after President Mnangagwa last month gazetted the final delimitation report, which marks the country\u2019s constituencies and wards.<\/p>\n
