V. Minimum use of force and avoiding the use of live ammunition on demonstrating civilians: ―You shall not murderǁ (Exodus 20:13); VI. Equal access of all election contesting political parties to and coverage in both electronic and print media to publicise their manifestos. This would make them known and at the same time enable voters make informed political choices and VII. A comprehensive national peace and reconciliation process to enable Zimbabweans to do away with their past (especially electoral violence) which has always affected their independent participation in electoral processes. Before Jesus ascended to Heaven, he said to his disciples: ―Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraidǁ (John 14:27). Zimbabweans need such kind of peace - within and amongst themselves and as groups or individuals - to freely and independently vote without fear. Happy reading! iii
