MUTARE residents have accused the Office of the Registrar General of inordinate delays in issuing out documents such as national identity cards and birth certificates.
After a long Covid-19 induced lockdown break, the district registry office is only processing 60 identification documents per day.
These include birth and IDs with first preference being given to those with authorisation letters from work or school warranting their need for Identity documents.
Local groups, Conscious Development and Empowerment Trust (CODET) together with Election Resource Centre (ERC) have since written to District Registry Office expressing concern over the small number of identification documents which are being processed despite the long break by the registry.
