Mapuranga said in his report that there was peace before, during and after elections.
“All political parties were given their constitutional right to deploy polling agents. Local observers, foreign observers, local media and foreign media were given the right to exercise their duties within their mandate,”
“The Zimbabwe law enforcement did an applausable job with their policing jurisdiction.”
Mapuranga said the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) ensured that every voter was afforded a chance to excercise their constitutional right to vote.
“…they were all given time to vote. ZEC handled the election in a transparent manner and all political players were given the opportunity to participate in all the processes according to the law of Zimbabwe,” he said.
“The 3km radius of each and every polling stations were not violated. The votes announcements and declarations were done according to the law of Zimbabwe,”he said.

In addition to this, the NJCV is duty-bound to continue protecting the sovereignty of Zimbabwe through religious support dating back from the white colonial era until the independance of Zimbabwe which came through 16 years of liberation war, he said.
Mapuranga urged all stakeholders to remain peaceful and avoid tarnishing the Conduct of the just-ended elections.
“We call all Zimbabweans to shun violence and command police to continue doing their law enforcement duties. We look forward to see a peaceful inauguration and a productive Parliament,” he said.
