THE opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) party yesterday said it was closely monitoring the conduct of the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec) as it announces election results.
The party described the election as not free and fair.Addressing a Press conference in Harare, CCC spokesperson Promise Mkwananzi said preliminary results favoured the party.
“As a movement, we are currently seized with monitoring the electoral process, particularly the V11s,” Mkwananzi said.
The V11s formed part of the Constitutional Court challenge against President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s disputed 2018 election victory.
According to the Electoral Act, the presiding officer is supposed to post the V11 forms containing election results outside a polling station.
“We are watching Zec, and we hope that it is going to do the right thing. We know that there are areas where they are refusing to post V11s and V23s,” Mkwananzi said.
“In some instances, it is alleged that the presiding officers are being instructed to make clandestine phone calls before publishing the V11s.”
