She said the turn has been good from Tuesday to date with over 60 registered voters having had passed through by press time.
“The verification exercise is gaining momentum and we are appealing to people who have not yet verified their details, to do before the exercise comes to a close, “said Ms. Ponde.
And another ECZ inspection officer at Chinsali day verification centre Constance Zulu said most people have verified their details via mobile facility.
She said most people that are visiting the centre are doing card replacements for lost voter’s card, transfers and a few of those who have discovered typical graphical errors after checking on their own.
