South Africa’s (SA) Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) will host a voter registration weekend ahead of the upcoming local government elections.

The event is scheduled for June 20 and 21, giving citizens an opportunity to register or update their voting details.

The final election date will be officially proclaimed by Minister of Co-operative Governance and Traditional Affairs, Velenkosini Hlabisa, once registration closes.

IEC Chief Electoral Officer Sy Mamabolo says the registration weekend is a key part of ensuring a smooth and inclusive electoral process.
