The EC team arrived during the airing of PeaceFM's midday news; thus the news team took the opportunity to allow listeners interact with them on-air.
Speaking during an interview on Peace FM's midday news, the EC Chairperson stressed that her outfit will continue to undertake and pursue the right reforms, in the areas of procurement, the Information Technology (IT) Unit, staffing and other aspects of the commission’s work, regardless of the accusations levelled against its officials.
She also disclosed plans by the commission to absorb the cost of media accreditations for election reporting.

All this is cosmetics for us to think that you are doing something good.Please extend the limited voter registration to the electoral areas and stop visiting media houses for that is not part of your job.
So what informed your choice of a radio station instead of a press conference or something of that sort? I think the media coverage would have been broadened than this since everybody has a choice of a radio station he or she listens to.
