The recently gazetted Constitutional Amendment No. 3 Bill continues to generate debate, particularly around Clause 2, but what does this specific provision propose and how could it affect Zimbabwe’s electoral management framework?

Clause 2 seeks to transfer responsibility for the voters’ roll from the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission to the Registrar-General. Public governance experts argue that this shift could improve administrative efficiency in managing voter registration and election processes.

In this explainer, we unpack what the clause means in practical terms, how it would alter existing institutional responsibilities and why it matters within Zimbabwe’s broader constitutional framework.

Watch as we break it down clearly and separate fact from speculation.
