Madam Zanetor emphasized the importance of the election, highlighting its significance for the future of the constituency and the country as a whole.

Okay, so on that premise, what measures are you putting in place to check that?
You can only do what we say or what we see, so we have our polling agents who are out there and citizens who are going to vote are going to be harassed based or being offered money. So what we are doing is we’re taking notes of the Electoral Commission representatives across various polling stations because we intend to mention all these to the party election directorate, this is a very crucial election.”
