Voter Registration Marred by Multiple Challenges in Mozambique

An increase in the number of cholera cases, and a wave of disinformation about the spread of the disease, has led members of the public, mostly youths and adolescents, to destroy and burn public infrastructure, and the homes and property of community leaders, Joseph Hanlon writes for Mozambique News Reports And Clippings.

Meanwhile, the opposition provinces of Nampula and Zambézia continue to suffer a registration crisis. Observers from the Mais Integridade civil society observation consortium found 89% of registration posts visited in Quelimane in the week of 19-25 May had problems, a sharp increase from the 68% the week before. In Nacala Porto 75% had problems, and in Nampula city 50%, both higher than in the previous week. There is also a major maldistribution of registration brigades, with a shortfall of registration brigades in opposition areas.
