​No convoying in the city: Police

Supporters of nominating candidates are discouraged from convoying in vehicles when going to pay their nomination fees.

This is causing traffic jams for other road users in the city.

Traffic police have warned against the overloading of passenger vehicles and trucks going around in the city and candidates should not entertain this behaviour.

Police will be out and about to make sure those road users, especially supporters of candidates, do not overload and follow traffic rules in the Capital.

Elections operations for police have started way before the issuing of writs and will be continuing throughout the campaign and polling period.

The general public is urged to take heed of Police roadblocks that will be set up at certain areas in the city.
