By Dorrothy Moyo| The Zimbabweans United For Democracy Party, ZUNDE has called for a mass voter turnout in the upcoming 2018 elections.

Their statement comes as analysts said that there is mass voter apathy particularly among older voters (above the age of 40).

Zimbabwe will be holding elections by August this year and the polls will be Emmerson Mnangagwa’s first ever elections as President. They also come after the November Operation Restore Order that removed 94 year old Robert Mugabe.

President Emmerson Mnangawa has promised the elections will be free of violence.

When the first voters roll total figures emerged last month, indications were that the 40 years and under take up most voters. That resulted in the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission opening the doors for registrations and at the time of writing the database was still wide open for new entries.

To this ZUNDE said it “urges a massive voter turnout. Make sure you vote when the day comes.”
