The Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) has called for calm following the shooting of three people inNongoma.

IEC chief electoral officer, Pansy Tlakula says, “We are obviously concerned because it is going to be very difficult for us to conduct free and fair elections in an atmosphere where there is violence and a lack of political tolerance.”
