He said that the election procedure would also allow the most popular candidates to emerge winners in the primaries.
Option A4 allows voters to que behind the preferred candidate and being counted as having voted for the candidate.
“We want a transparent process to select our candidates and we don’t want to have serious issues as fallout of the exercise.
“If a person loses and sees that there was a level playing field, his complaints and grievances will be minimal.
“To ensure fairness in accreditation of those to vote, you have to come with your party membership card and voter card.’’
“Apart from that, party executive in each ward as well as aspirants are at the gate to identify voters before they come.
“When those people cannot identify a voter as being a member of their wards, such a person is not allowed in,’’ he said.
