The Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) is facing severe criticism from the Tonse-Pamodzi Alliance, led by Celestine Mukandila, just ten days before the country's upcoming elections. During a press briefing held on Monday, the alliance accused the electoral body of concealing the identities of its polling staff.
Questioning the transparency of the process, Mukandila challenged the ECZ by asking what the commission was afraid of. The controversy places the election referee under intense scrutiny as political actors demand accountability regarding the management and staffing of the upcoming vote.
