The decision to extend voting in selected wards by a day after the late distribution of ballot papers, which resulted in delayed polling, has not been well received by the opposition in Zimbabwe.

President Emerson Mnangagwa issued a presidential proclamation on Wednesday directing that the affected polling stations operate for an additional 24 hours.

It was a smooth opening at some polling stations on Wednesday, with the majority of those visited by the nbc opening on time.

The leader of the Namibian Government's observer team in Zimbabwe, Ambassador Ndali Kamati, expresses confidence that tomorrow's election will be conducted in a peaceful, free, fair, and credible manner.

Ambassador Kamati spoke to nbc News' senior reporter Emil Xamro Seibeb at the Rainbow Towers in Harare.

Ambassador Kamati states that the ongoing process has encountered no hindrances thus far.

While emphasising the current stability during the lead-up, Kamati was swift to acknowledge the potential for disorder on Election Day.
