‘Electoral corruption rampant in Zim’

A REPORT by the Zimbabwe Civil Society Anti-Corruption Coalition (ZCSACC) has claimed that electoral corruption is rampant and has flourished with impunity in the country.

ZCSACC decried abuse of electoral legal and policy frameworks and lack of independence of the electoral management body, the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec) which it said undermined the credibility of elections.

The watchdog said the electoral cycle was often manipulated by State and non-State actors in order to give advantage to some political players.
