ZEC Multiparty meeting marred by chaos calling for Chigumba to resign
After the close of nominations of candidates the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) is must appoint a national multiparty liaison committee for presidential and general elections, a multiparty liaison committee for each constituency where elections are contested and a multiparty liaison committee for each local authority (Electoral Act Chapter 2:13, 160B(1)). In the case of by-elections no national committee is established, nor are constituency committees established in constituencies which are uncontested during general elections.
