Public concerns have been raised over the “militarization” of the electoral body but Chigumba insisted that ZEC will not discriminate against ex-service personnel. She said: ---------- itel A70 256GB $99USD WhatsApp: https://wa.me/+263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 ---------- > There is no evidence that has been brought before me to show that anybody with the so-called militarised background acted contrary to the mandate or interest of the registered voters. > Those retired members of the security services, as long as the retired members of the security services are in Zimbabwe, as long as they respond to the adverts that we flight for vacant posts, and if they qualify for the posts, they will continue serving in ZEC. > It is unconstitutional to discriminate against them on the basis that they once served in the military. > Show me a country that has a policy that it does not employ people because they were once soldiers. > These soldiers are people who die for the country, and ZEC does not have a policy that discriminates against them. ZEC’s chief elections officer, Utoile Silaigwana, is a former member of the Zimbabwe National Army (ZNA). The late Major General Douglas Nyikayaramba also served in ZEC’s predecessor, the Electoral Supervisory Commission (ESC), when he was still in the army. *More: NewsDay* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
