Opposition Suffers Another Setback Ahead of Zimbabwe Elections
Opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) has accused the ruling party, ZANU-PF of orchestrating unconstitutional tactics to undermine free and fair elections, which is set to take place on August 23, 2023.
This comes after Bulawayo High Court Judge Justice Bongani Ndlovu ordered that 12 CCC and other opposition members be struck off the ballot after they failed to tender their nomination papers on time on June 21. Earlier, the High Court of Zimbabwe prohibited exiled former Cabinet member Saviour Kasukuwere from running in the nation's presidential elections. The action is in response to a complaint that a member of the ruling party made against the former Zanu-PF political commissar.
Concerns have been raised about the impartiality of the electoral commission. Political analysts raised the alarm after changes at the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC), warning that if not managed correctly, it could have an impact on the standard of this year's polls.
