Elections Will Not Be Postponed, Everything Is In Order: Zec

The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec) has ruled out postponing the July 30 elections for any reason saying that everything is in order. Speaking at a media briefing on Monday, Zec commissioner Emmanuel Magade said,

We pride ourselves in being servants of the law. There is no way we can subvert the Constitution. I think if there are things that are humanly possible for us to rectify, to intervene in the time left between now and July 30 then that can be done, but postponement of the election is out of the question. In terms of the Constitution, we have to abide meticulously and religiously by the provision of the Constitution.

Commissioner Qhubani Moyo also said,

Our position as a Commission is that we are satisfied that the voters’ roll is in perfect order. It is a new voters’ roll that has been under construction since last year in September.
