Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) Midlands Provincial Elections Officer Dorcas Mpofu confirmed the development which happened at the Gweru Magistrate courts.
“We are having nomination court for Gokwe-Kabuyani constituency today (22 July 2022) at Gweru Magistrate court (court room 2) at 1000 hours,” she said.
