The Patriotic Front party in Ndola district has appealed to the electorates in the country to take the ongoing online voter pre – registration exercise seriously.
PF District Party Chairperson Benjamin Chitondo has advised electorates not to entertain propaganda being peddled by sections of society who are criticizing the exercise.
Speaking in an interview today, Mr Chitondo said the move by the electoral body should be supported by all well-meaning Zambians as it gives an opportunity for eligible voters to express their voice democratically in an election.
Mr Chitondo added that the system introduced will also provide a large representation of eligible voters to cast their votes.
“It must be understood that for democracy to function properly in a nation, all eligible voters must be given opportunity to vote. And this can be attained if the elections are free, fair and accessible.
Which means, the implementation of the online pre – registration provides opportunity for Zambians to register from any part of the country as long as they have access to internet,” he said.
Mr Chitondo further stressed that barriers to registration to vote must be eliminated as the country risked not capturing newly registered voters.
Meanwhile, Mr Chitondo has also urged members of the public left out in the just ended phase one mobile national registration card (NRC) exercise to visit their nearest district registration offices.
Mr Chitondo stressed that eligible voters and first time voters must acquire NRC’s if they are to participate in the fourth coming general elections.
ECZ launched the online voter pre-registration exercise which is expected to run from September 21 to November 6, 2020.
The online pre-registration will allow eligible citizens to submit their details online and later physically visit mobile registration centres to complete the process.
I have been preaching this. Do not be f00led by the upnd propagandists. They have even recruited diasporans, who by the way cannot even vote, to do their dirty work.
I have just watched the trump vs Biden debate and after watching that I hope everyone understands why our great leader ECL does not participate in such debates. Very childish
PF and ECZ have set up online bogus registration exercise to rig the election.
I agree with Kaizer he has been consistent on this matter as a visionary he should ascend to presidency- let’s work together and make sure he is president or running mate. He is a great leader.
The great leader. Something associated with North Korea. A tyrannical title
I would be very skeptical to challenge someone who has the ref on their side. It is very clear that ECZ is and has been working with PF.
So how come we are all just watching Lungu fool us?
Ba mushanina bwali 4 u all is well wen u are eating and wining u have no sense of shame wen majority Zambians are living in abject poverty. Shame but remember not all days are the same we had KK, FTJ, Mwanawasa, RB, Sata it’s just the matter of time.
Vote is the biggest weapon in a democracy. It is the duty of ever adult to exercise this right. If you be complacent now, you will repent for next five years.
If you don’t vote, you won’t have right to criticise politicians if they err. This is the opportunity to get registered as voters. Take some time out and get it done. Don’t be lazy. You might end up losing a lot.
No matter who says what, people. Just get yourself registered as voter. Participate in the democracy to keep it dynamic and vibrant. Democracy can’t survive without us. We are the integral part of it.
In my opinion, not voting is a crime in a democracy. It is the duty of every adult to vote in every election. Thus we chose who will rule the country and how. Voting is the means to keep a check on politicians who, otherwise would go on a rampage if let loose.

Those who are not yet registered as voters, must get it done ASAP. It is important. If you don’t register yourself as voter now, you will have to blame yourself for every bad thing that will happen in the country for next five years.
Wake up friends and smell your coffee. It’s high time that you got registered as voter. Don’t take it lightly. Understand the seriousness of the exercise. It will benefit none but you and none will suffer but you, if wasted this opportunity.
I don’t like this
