“I have already fulfilled my responsibility. Polling stations are open from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. I am pleased with how well-organized the process is — there are no long queues and the stations are many. This means that when a voter arrives at their polling station, they won’t spend much time waiting. Everyone should take this opportunity to go to the station where they registered,” said CPA Makalla.
