Blow for MDC-T as independent election watchdog okays Chinese company which won voter registration tender

The MDC-T, urged people to register to vote despite the biased tender award arguing that the more people that registered the harder it would become for ZANU-PF to rig the elections.

It also said that it had the technical expertise to make sure ZANU-PF would not manipulate the voter registration system.

“We derive comfort from the fact that our technical experts are firmly on the ground and that they are keeping an eagle's eye on all the shenanigans that are being created by ZEC as it seeks to steal the people's vote on behalf of the thoroughly discredited and unpopular ZANU-PF regime,” it said.

“Our technical experts are convinced that the German company, Demalog Identification Systems, are technically superior and better experienced in the supply of BVR kits compared to the Chinese company, Laxton Group Limited.

“Be that as it may, our technical experts are highly trained computer specialists who will leave no stone unturned in ensuring that the BVR exercise is not manipulated and bastardized by the crumbling and bankrupt ZANU-PF regime.

“The people of Zimbabwe are guaranteed of winning against the ZANU-PF dictatorship provided they register to vote in their millions in order to circumvent and short circuit the evil and malevolent vote rigging machinery that ZEC is desperately trying to put in place.”
