Voter registrations ahead of the Botswana National Elections hang in the balance.
Voter registrations ahead of the 2024 Botswana National Elections hangs in the balance as the Umbrella for Democratic Change is at loggerheads with the Independent Electoral Commission.
The two returned to the High Court of Botswana in Francistown after the High Court granted the UDC an interim order interdicting the IEC from preventing UDC agents from monitoring the voter registration processes.“In this case, the court is being called upon to consider whether to extend to the applicant a right which squarely does not exist on the face of the enabling legislation which is the electoral act.
Legal counsel for the UDC and also the party’s President, Advocate Duma Boko remained unwavering in his party’s resolve. “The deployment of the applicants, registration observers, is consistent with the letter of Section 65 A, subsection 12 C of the constitution of this republic. The respondent is merely being placed under a negative obligation which is forbearing, refrain from interfering, obstructing, and denying access to these individuals.” Any cookies that may not be particularly necessary for the website to function and is used specifically to collect user personal data via analytics, ads, other embedded contents are termed as non-necessary cookies.
