The Mozambique Electoral Administration Technical Secretariat (STAE) is to train about 11,000 people in voter registration throughout the country, local media reports said on Tuesday. ''The training of these instructors will start by the end of next month. We hope to have trained the whole structure within 50 days, from instructors at national level, down to the brigade staff,'' the Maputo Daily, 'Noticias' said. It stressed that STAE had already concluded tenders for the supply of all the necessary materials, including voter education leaflets.
