Another supplementary registration to gobble P65m

The first supplementary voters’ registration is currently underway and will end on March 15, and there were already fears for high incidence of voter apathy looking at the low turnout in the first voters’ registration.

The supplementary registration will be allocated the second largest share of the Independent Electoral Commission’s (IEC) development budget which is approximately 17.4% of the total budget. Compared to the ongoing supplementary registration where eligible voters can only register to vote at the office of the principal registration officer for the constituency, the next supplementary registration will be conducted at all polling stations, both locally and abroad.
