Nevers Mumba, Head of the Southern African Development Community Electoral Observation Mission (SEOM) has attracted global attention with questions being raised in his conduct as the head of the bloc’s election observation mission. Some analysts have opined that there exist close ties between Mumba and Citizens Coalition for Change leader, Nelson Chamisa. Their assertions are that it was always questionable whether Mumba could serve as an impartial observer. Both Mumba and Chamisa are pastors, fueling rumours that their relationship transcends political lines and delves into the social sphere. Given these alleged connections, one has to question the objectivity of Mumba’s report.
