By Own Correspondent| The delaying tactics by the ZEC to avail the voter’s roll to opposition political parties was deliberate since there are conflicting figures on the total number of registered voters on the voter’s roll for the July 30 elections, a local independent elections monitoring group Team Pachedu has alleged.
Said Team Pachedu:
?
NO ONE had the roll used for elections!
15/06 – 5,681,604 ZEC
18/06 – 5,683,936 VR1 Released
09/07 – 5,695,706 ZEC
20/07 – VR Printing Done
25/07 – 5,695,706 VR2 Released
01/08 – 5,695,706 Observers
02/08 – 5,695,936 Results
03/08 – 5,695,706 ZESN
16/08 – 5,695,936 ZEC Court pic.twitter.com/Cx9xSvxyxJ— Team Pachedu (@PacheduZW) August 18, 2018
Definitely. High court had to intervene for ZEC to release the roll to CSU a few days before the elections. However, the roll released to CSU had 5,695,706, similar to the ones acquired by observers, including @ZESN1. SSo the new numbers announced by @ZECzim are so mysterious. pic.twitter.com/BY1MwFVDvx

It is so pathetic, @ZECzim deceived everyone, observers included. Why were they secretive with the voters' roll?
