ZEC reports Mnangagwa, Chamisa, to police for breaching electoral law

Mnangagwa, Chamisa in trouble over illegal campaigns

The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission says it has referred to police at least two candidates who might have violated the law by campaigning after the cutoff time.

The electoral commission boss Priscilla Chigumba  refused to reveal names during a press conference but the candidates are likely President Emmerson Mnangagwa and main opposition challenger Nelson Chamisa.

Mnangangwa issued a public statement  after former president Robert Mugabe told reporters he was going to vote Chamisa.

Chamisa was yesterday reported to police after he held a press conference in the afternoon.
