The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) will need a probe to reveal the reasons behind the huge number of rejected votes after provincial presidential results placed the figure at 398,109.

IEBC chief executive Ezra Chiloba on Thursday said the commission will review the results on the manual forms for discrepancies between the digitally projected numbers and those recorded at polling stations.
