Madibelatlhopho to monitor registration ‘from a distance’ :: Mmegi Online

As the voter registration for the 2024 General Election gets underway tomorrow, the leader of Madibelatlhopho says they will deploy their members at different polling stations to observe the exercise from a distance.

Although the Court of Appeal (CoA) has ruled in favour of the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) against the Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC), thwarting it's (UDC)'s request to monitor the voter registration, Michael Keakopa says they are within their rights to monitor the exercise. The IEC will conduct the voter registration from tomorrow (January 5) until February 3.

Keakopa who is the head of Madibelatlhopho, a UDC group or arrangement which says it is aimed at monitoring elections to ensure they are fair, told MmegiOnline that contrary to the IEC’s statement issued earlier today, they have no intention of interfering with the voter registration process.
