The Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) Chairperson Mwangala Zaloumis has ordered voter registration officers to work overnight so that all eligible voters are recorded in the books as voters.
She said all citizens who turn up at the last minute should be accommodated before the Mass Voter Registration Exercise officially comes to an end.
Speaking during a tour of Shifwankula Registration Centre in Chibombo District, Zaloumis pointed out that the number of would-be voters has continued to grow as the exercise approaches its conclusion.
She highlighted that officers have to work in shifts and do everything in their ability to guarantee that no eligible voter is turned away.
The Mass Voter Registration Exercise is expected to officially close on Wednesday, November 26, 2025.
