Commissioner Mukanda visited several centres in Matero Constituency, including Matero Shoprite, Justin Kabwe Secondary School, Matero Community Hall, Matero Police Station and Chipata Community Centre.
During the tour, Mr Mukanda inspected operations and interacted with ECZ staff and citizens registering as voters.
Speaking after the visit, Mr Mukanda urged eligible Zambians to participate in the national exercise.
“I want to encourage all citizens to come out and register. Your vote is your voice and participating in this process is key to strengthening our democracy,” he said.
He also commended ECZ staff, noting that the process was running smoothly.
“We are satisfied with the level of organisation and the commitment of our officers on the ground,” he added.
Meanwhile, Commissioner Ndiyoi Mutiti toured registration centres in Munali Constituency, including Kaunda Square and East Park Mall, where she observed a steady flow of registrants.
