Elections date set
Harare Bureau
HARMONISED elections will be held in the last week of March next year and the proclamation of the actual dates will be done in due course, President Mugabe has said.
He said the constitutional referendum was expected in the first week of November.
This came out in an urgent application which the Head of State and Government and Commander-in-Chief of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces filed at the High Court yesterday seeking an extension of the deadline to proclaim dates for by-elections in three vacant constituencies.
“Accordingly, due to the unavailability of financial resources applicant is asking that the holding of the by-elections be further extended to 31 March, 2013, the idea being to subsume the holding of the by-elections in the harmonised elections to be held in the last week of March 2013,” said President Mugabe in an application filed on his behalf by Justice and Legal Affairs Minister Patrick Chinamasa.
