“We are expecting party members to turn out at their respective cells to demonstrate their existence. The cell leadership’s positions require them to meet their members on a regular basis,” he said.
“Cell chairpersons should have an agenda for the meetings. They should influence events around their own localities, such as improving their own welfare, improving the conditions of their clinics, their schools or even repairing roads in their areas of jurisdiction,” said Cde Machacha.
