Over  20  new  people  are  registered  on  15th and 16th  July  2015  throughout the  three  centres  in  the  ward.

 

Speaking  to  MBC,  Supervisor for Jerusalem Centre  Davis  Kumwenda  said  the  turnout  was  expected  to  rise  over  the  week  end.

 

“The  turnout  is  expected  to  rise  Saturday  and  Sunday because  those  we  register  are  mostly  students  who  are  busy within the  week,”  Said  Kumwenda.

However,  Supervisor  for  Mundewa  Centre  Fiskani  Nyirenda  urged  stakeholders  to  intensify  civic  education  to  register  as  many people  as  possible.

 

“There  is  a  need  for  stakeholders  to  go  round  and  remind  people  about  the  registration so  that  we  register  as  many  people  as  possible in  readiness  for  the  by election,” said  Nyirenda.

 

While  Supervisor  for  Mbawemi  Centre    Francisco  Nkhoma  said  it  was  natural  for  people  to  start  panicking  as  the  registration  exercise  come  towards  the  end.

In  the  2014  general  elections  Chiwanja  ward  registered  a  total  of  5,942.
