ZAPU Press Statement on the results of the 2013 harmonised elections

ZAPU would like to congratulate the people of Zimbabwe for voting in a peaceful manner. Peaceful as it may seem, ZAPU has noted that these elections were not free, fair and credible.

ZAPU has noted some irregularities and illegalities in the way these elections were held. It has also noted that the whole electoral process was flawed and as such the leadership and its legal advisers are working on challenging this outcome.

Please note that reports from provinces are still being compiled and a full press statement will be released as soon as possible.

In this respect ZAPU encourages its members to exercise restraint as we go through this legal process.

Thank you

Mjobisa Noko

ZAPU Secretary for Information, Publicity and Marketing
