The uMkhonto weSizwe Party has called for the immediate resignation of the commissioner of the Electoral Commission, Janet Love for what the party says is her blatant bias. The party has warned that if Love does not exit the commission in the next seven days, it reserves the right to pursue all available avenues including approaching the courts. In a statement,  the party has cited Love's response to a question during a January media briefing in which she said Zuma would not be eligible to be on the MK Party's Parliamentary candidates' list. It says the  pronouncement was premature and in violation of electoral rules which stipulate that such declarations can only be made following an official objection.

Zimbabwe's Elections Commission confirmed late last night that Emmerson Mnangagwa had won a second term as president. Mnangagwa received more than 52% of the vote, while Nelson Chamisa, the head of the opposition Citizens' Coalition for Change (CCC) party, received only 44%. The opposition has accused the elections of rigging and voter suppression due to delays. Election observers have also said this week's voting violated democratic ideals. Although voting was peaceful, SADC said some aspects of the elections fell short of Zimbabwe's constitutional requirement and SADC principles and guidelines for democratic elections of 2021.  To unpack the results of the Zimbabwean elections we spoke to Terry Tselane, Executive Chairperson of the Institute of Election Management Services in Africa and Dr Tinashe Sithole, Visiting Research Fellow at the University of Johannesburg's Dept. of Politics and International Relations  

Former Tshwane Mayor Dr. Murunwa Makwarela resigned on Friday and was disowned by his party COPE after the Gauteng High Court dispelled information that it issued him with an insolvency rehabilitation certificate in 2018.  Makwarela had submitted the fake certificate, a day before, to city manager Johann Mettler to prove he was not an unrehabilitated insolvent and was eligible to occupy a public office. The city has been forced to concede that it does not have measures in place to verify the authenticity of such documents. This saga has brought into sharp focus the lack of capacity and urgent need to validate and authenticate all personal information of people who are vying for public office at local, provincial, and national levels.

The National Assembly this week voted by 232 votes to 98 to pass the Electoral Amendment Bill that will allow individuals to stand for elected office as independents. However it has been criticized by some, saying it is a missed opportunity for thorough reform to enhance political accountability.

The Electoral Commission has reiterated that it will file an application this afternoon for the Constitutional Court to allow the local government elections to be held by the end of February 2022.
