The credentials and track record checklist for candidate selection, and the vetting and security checklist will look into the following: firstly, qualifications that are in compliance with the relevant statute of Zimbabwe, the constitution, the electoral Act, CCC candidate selection procedures manual, community and standing track record, performance in communities, political history and record, capacity and capability and competence, security, integrity, ethics, loyalty and service record.<\/p>\n
