*Chamisa's CCC Vows To Participate In 09 December By-elections* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?qe The Citizens’ Coalition for Change (CCC) led by Nelson Chamisa has urged voters to turn out in their numbers and vote for the party’s candidates in by-elections scheduled for Saturday, 09 December. In a statement, CCC spokesperson Promise Mkwananzi said a High Court ruling barring recalled CCC candidates from the poll, and an announcement by ZEC Chief Elections Officer, Utoile Silaigwana to withdraw ballot papers from the constituencies, have been nullified by the party’s appeal against the ruling at the Supreme Court.
