The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) has said its provincial and district offices remain open for voter registration every weekday.
In a statement seen by Pindula News, ZEC urged those who missed the mobile Biometric Voter Registration (BVR) exercise to visit its offices which will be open between 0800 -1700 hours. Reads the statement:
For those who missed the mobile BVR exercise, note that all ZEC Provincial and District Offices remain open for voter registration every weekday (Monday-Friday) between 0800 -1700 hours. Check your nearest ZEC Provincial or District Office for convenience.
ZEC concluded its mobile biometric voter registration exercise on 26 March 2023.
The voter registration exercise was originally set to end on 21 March but the commission extended it to the 26th after recurring unscheduled power cuts negatively affected the final mobile voter registration blitz at some centres.
ZEC said the situation was been worsened by the cloudy weather conditions prevailing in some parts of the country.
The exercise comes ahead of the 2023 harmonised elections scheduled for July.
Individuals who want to register to vote must bring their identity documents to ZEC offices.
They are also required to bring proof of residence so that they are properly assigned to a specific polling station.
