Rita Makarau locks herself in room after storming away from ZEC-Political Parties Forum Meeting

Earlier on today, the meeting between the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission and the political parties forum had to be prematurely aborted after ZEC Chairperson justice Rita Makarau stormed away from the meeting.  Apparently, Makarau was unhappy with the opposition parties who she accused of lacking faith. She was unhappy about an article which appeared in the Newsday Weekender of Saturday the 18th of March 2017, which had the title “Opposition parties lose confidence in ZEC.”

The political parties, on the other hand, were unhappy that the issue of Biometric Voter Registration was not placed on the agenda of the meeting.

We have learned that Justice Makarau has locked herself in one of the rooms and police are guarding the entrance of the room to prevent the political parties from going through. The officials of the political parties are waiting for Rita Makarau to address them at the electoral commission.  However, Makarau is refusing to address the opposition parties, as she has accused them of politicising issues.

This is a developing story and we’ll be adding information/ making clarifications as we get more information.
