The organising department has completed the finalisation of the data base for the congress delegates.On Wednesday next week, the national standing committee will receive a report and recommendations from our secretary for elections Mr Gadhi Mudzingwa. This will relate to the appointment of the independent electoral commission to run the congress elections, the dates and procedures of the nomination of candidates of this congress and the timeline to the actual congress. We appeal for discipline of party members as we go towards our congress.
