Road closures, locked gates, trenches and a voting station break-in were some of the incidents that hampered the electoral process in KwaZulu-Natal on Monday.
IEC KZN said in a statement on Monday that two voting stations didn’t open in Umzinto on the KZN south coast on Monday because the community dug trenches to prevent access.
The commission said a voting station was broken into overnight at Ward 14 near Marianhill, west of Durban. Road blockages in ward 15 in the Jozini municipality and Uthukela region were cleared by police and municipal officials on Monday morning allowing voters to cast their votes.
