The voter registration was originally set to end on 21
March.
The exercise will now conclude on 26 March.
“The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) would like to
advice the public that the voter registration blitz and voter education has
been extended by five days,” ZEC posted on Twitter on 17 March.
ZEC has listed nearly 5 000 centres that citizens who are
eligible to vote can visit to register during the mobile biometric voter
registration with Bulawayo having 71 centres.
A total of 4 474 have been identified for the programme.
The electoral commission has also deployed voter educators
to sensitise the public on their right to vote.
Zimbabwe is gearing towards the 2023 harmonised elections
and President Mnangagwa last month gazetted the final delimitation report,
which marks the country’s constituencies and wards.
ZEC has already tabled a $130 billion budget to conduct the
harmonised polls, with Treasury now expected to start disbursing the funds.
