Civil organisations complain over lack of political will to do reforms in Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe Election Support Network (Zesn) has reported that Civil Organizations which gathered during its stakeholders conference recently expressed concens over the lack of political will to do reforms in Zimbabwe.

Zesn said the CSOs the reforms were a panacea towards the democratic elections in Zimbabwe.

"We, the undersigned Civic Society Organisations, having deliberated for two days at an All Stakeholders Conference convened by the Zimbabwe Elections Support Network (ZESN) in Bulawayo, note with concern the half-hearted attempts and lack of political will to reform the laws and institutions governing the conduct of elections in Zimbabwe," CSOs said in their communique.

"We note with concern, that in the absence of meaningful legislative, administrative and political reforms, the 2018 elections will not be free and fair."
