SIX CONSTITUENCIES TO CANCEL BY ELECTIONS
By Staff Reporter
Six constituencies that were supposed to hold by-elections, will no longer proceed according to a court ruling.
In a statement, Zimbabwe Electoral Commission chief elections officer Mr Utuwile-Silayi-Gwana said this follows a court order issued stating there was no vacancy in the constituencies.
The constituencies are Nkulumane, Mbizo, Kambuzuma, Mutasa South, Phumula and Harare East.
Mr Slayi-Gwana noted that the proclamation calling for by-elections in these constituencies by President Emmerson Mnangagwa is amended accordingly.
President Mnangagwa set the 26th of March this year, as the date for holding by-elections to fill-in vacant parliamentary and council seats.
