Because the 2024 general elections hinge on the register, everything about the election is about a credible register.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEC according to their response to us, is that we should come and they will indicate to us how they have resolved all the issues we are raising, then it is important that the media comes along to see what we are doing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause it is this transparency everybody is looking for that is why we have sent them, it is an open-ended invitation we have given to them, and they should allow the media in.
