Hi..how are you doing, am back after small and worth sharing discovery on how to remove protection and hidden links from (Magma) the free joomla template and i thought a good idea i share with you -:).

Are IEBC web servers overstretched by online applications of voter registration clerks?

Are IEBC web servers overstretched by online applications of voter registration clerks? With the recent advertisement of 2900 vacancies in biometrics voter registration clerks by IEBC in the local dailies, candidates are required to fill an online application form that easy!
