Following an incident in which voters’ registration books were stolen earlier this year from Marobela village, the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) has revealed that out of the affected voters, only nine are yet to get assistance to re-register.

Reached for a follow up on the matter, IEC spokesperson Osupile Maroba said out of the 48 affected voters, 39 have been assisted and managed to register.

“Through the efforts of the Commission and stakeholders, significant progress on reaching out to all of the 48 affected voters was made. “Only nine voters are remaining and they still have the opportunity to be attended to during inspection of the general roll which will commence soon,” he said.
