Zanzibar Electoral Commission boss George Kazi told stakeholders that running elections properly requires everyone to pitch in rather than dumping everything on his organization. The review session happened in Pemba at Makonyo Hall after their general election wrapped up, and Kazi said the transparency and professionalism shown this cycle will basically become the blueprint for future votes.
People who showed up to the meeting gave ZEC props for keeping things peaceful and fair while citizens exercised their voting rights without any drama breaking out. Vice-Chairperson Aziza Suwedi wrapped things up by saying the feedback collected will get used to upgrade their systems and cook up reform plans that make future elections run smoothly. Representatives from political parties, media outlets, civil society groups, and regular citizens all attended the gathering in Chake Chake District.
