Full Text: ZESN Refutes Claims Of Meeting To Discuss Controversial Elections Report

The ZESN board wishes to categorically refute false claims that it has called for an urgent meeting, at ZESN offices on the 23rd of August 2018 at 0900 hours.

ZESN advises stakeholders and the general public that contrary to the circular on social media, it has not called for a meeting on 23 August. The claims in the fictitious circular are malicious and bent on tarnishing the image of the National Director and the Network hence should be treated with the contempt it deserves.

On behalf of the board, ZESN Board Chairperson, Andrew. Makoni wishes to advise that the circulating notice issued through the press is fake and has neither been issued by the board nor “the board of trustees”.

In the discharge of its mandate, ZESN maintains independence, impartiality and objectivity as key values.

ZESN remains committed to promoting democratic electoral processes in Zimbabwe and is unmoved by the attacks on the integrity of the Network.

The official statement is in response to the call for a meeting below, which has been circulating on social media:

On behalf of the board and all members of Zimbabwe Election Support Network (ZESN), I hereby call for an Extraordinary General Meeting on 23 August 2018  to among other things consider the controversial report on the 30 July 2018 harmonised elections. It has come to the attention of the Board that members of the secretariat and the Director, Rindai Chipfunde Vava have been working with state elements to cover up election fraud committed by ZEC. We further have credible evidence that Ms Rindai Chipfunde Vava has been promised to be substantive Chief Elections Officer (CEO) at ZEC after Mnangagwa’s inauguration,

The agenda is as follows:
1. Review of the 2018  elections  programmatic report with special emphasis on the contentious Parallel Voter Tabulation results.
2.Leadership renewal in the Secretariat
3. Review of the 2018 financial report.”

The meeting will be on Thursday 23 August 2018
Time: 9am – 3pm
Venue: ZESN offices
