The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission has officially corrected its omission of the MDC Alliance candidate for Mbare Constituency.

The election body confirmed in a government gazette on Tuesday that Mr Starman Chamisa will be the candidate of the opposition coalition in the constituency after being omitted in the initial gazette on June 22.

The omission had caused a wave of uncertainty amongst the Alliance supporters who could not understand how the country’s biggest opposition party may have failed to field a candidate in the country’s most contested constituency.
