Zapu rules out boycotting elections

ZAPU has ruled out boycotting the upcoming elections despite what it described as an uneven political field favouring Zanu PF, coupled with a shoe-string budget that has seen the opposition party failing to hold mass rallies.

The MDC Alliance has also run short of announcing a poll boycott citing failure by the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec) to ensure a transparent process leading to the elections.

The MDC Alliance has embarked on a regional offensive to raise concerns that the elections will not be free and fair, and Zapu spokesperson Iphithule Maphosa said the party feared the same.
