POLICE in Bulawayo yesterday reportedly disrupted a voter registration campaign exercise conducted by Nelson Chamisa’s Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) party supporters.
Bulawayo provincial spokesperson Swithern Chirowodza said
police claimed that the exercise, which was being carried out at the party
offices, was not sanctioned.
“It is shameful behaviour which we are experiencing under
the police. We started the meeting at 9am and the police dispersed us. Some of
our members were made to answer questions as to why we were meeting and they
dispersed us,” Chirowodza said.
Bulawayo police spokesperson Inspector Abednico Ncube said
he was unaware of the incident.
“I have not received such a report,’’ Ncube said.
The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission is conducting a
countrywide voter registration blitz in preparation for next year’s harmonised
elections, Zec says it is targeting one million new votes. Newsday
