The Zimbabwe Council of Churches (ZCC), an association of Christians from mainline denominations, has urged political parties participating in the July 30 elections to uphold the fundamental values of the country’ s Constitution.

ZCC yesterday launched a programme called I Pray I Vote in Masvingo. The programme seeks to promote peace and sanity before, during and after the July 30 elections.

” Under the I pray I Vote Campaign our thrust is to call for tolerance and sanity before, during and after the elections.

As ZCC our focus is on four areas- mobilisation, agenda setting, election observation and post election commitments,” said a ZCC programmes officer.

“We are also fervently appealing to all political parties to campaign in a peaceful manner,” he added.
