Mp wants another supplementary registration

The mover of the motion, Shoshong legislator Phillip Makgalemele also wanted “effective” voter registration campaign.

When presenting the motion, Makgalemele said that voting is an integral component of the democratic process and with the numbers recorded so far, many people would not have the opportunity to participate in the democratic process.  In the general voter registration last year, 478,148 voters registered nationwide, far less than the 1.2 million the IEC had set as their target.   As of Friday, only 54,096 people had registered in the supplementary voter registration exercise, which came to an end yesterday (Sunday).
