No, the Ministry has not received any reports about traditional leaders who have prevented political parties, elected councilors, representatives and any person who is not from their area from holding meetings nor those who have asked for a payment or required that permission be sought from them before a meeting and/or campaign could take place in the specified area.

Given the afore-mentioned replies, (aa), (bb) and (cc) fall away.
