In five days, Nigeria will be at its most defining moment in the past four years – the 2023 General election.
Like every human endeavour, our actions and attitudes at the poll are guided by specific rules, from what we should wear to how we will cast our votes.
We collated the don’ts at the polling unit. See them below
- Do not go to your polling units with any party poster, banner, flag, badge, or symbol.
- It is an offence to give or collect money to vote. Both the giver and the receiver are liable on conviction.
- You are not allowed to vote more than once in any particular election. If you are caught, you may be fined or sent to jail.
- Snatching and destruction of any election material attract twenty (24) months imprisonment.
- It is an offence to use someone else’s voter card. It is an offence with a maximum fine of N500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand Naira) or twelve (12) months imprisonment or both on conviction.
