Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) to extend the national mobile registration process
Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC)
September 14, 2007

The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) wishes to advice that after considering reports received from its teams deployed to supervise the 2007 National Mobile Registration Exercise and consulting stakeholders including political parties on the effectiveness of the exercise, it has resolved to extend the National Mobile Registration Programme in areas where it deems the exercise was not satisfactorily conducted due to logistical reasons and in response to concerns raised by stakeholders.

Details on the duration of the extension of the exercise will be communicated in due course to the public through the print and electronic media. The Commission will also deploy its teams in affected areas to educate the public on various aspects of the exercise. The exercise will entail the issuance of civil registration documents which include national identity documents, birth and death certificates as well as the registration of voters.

Please note that the registration of births, deaths and voters is an on-going exercise at all the Registrar-General's offices and members of the public are free to approach same for any of the above-stated services. The extension of the National Mobile Registration Exercise has been granted to ensure that services brought closer to disadvantaged members of the affected communities.
