Nigerians have taken to social media to lambast the Kano State Independent Electoral Commission for allowing children to vote in the election that took place across the 44 local government areas in th

e state.

In one of the videos, a young boy who appears to be between the age of 11 and 13, at Gwazaye polling unit, Kumbotso Local Government Area, is seen fixing his thumbprint against a party logo while other children struggle to receive their ballot papers. In the videos trending, some of the children are seen forming queues and mingling in contravention of the COVID-19 protocol. They subsequently affix thumbprints on ballot papers and cast their ballots.

Local government election have been known to be fraught with electoral fraud as ruling parties are known to always win by a landslide, a move which has seen many Nigerians calling for an amendment to the constitution that would allow the Independent National Electoral Commission conducting local government polls.

Watch: Little kids addicted to smoking cigarettes👉🏽it's crazy😲

When national dailies from the south report such issues it is with intent to redicule the north. No one is saying the south should not have children. Very soon ur population will decline and u still expect to win elections. Democracy is about getting what u hv to get what u want

Your gift for one Nigeria

inecnigeria will still go ahead and defend the results of this kind of election even in courts, under oath

Dat is their way

It's a norm. No be today e start

They are the 'kadarshians'

Why are they portraying this country in a bad light,

It has been like that since.

This is why a part of me(just a part!)feels Nnamdi Kanu is right. Like,where do you even begin?They use almaijiris to rig themselves in with the support of inec and they won't even bother to life their people from poverty. So they grow up to become boko haram and the cycle goes

The people of Kano do not care about the local government election because they does not have autonomy of their own.

Where are the men?

Why you sound as if it new thing

Na today?

Arewa forum isn't saying anything, failedleaders

Zoological Republic of Nigeria ENDNIGERIANOW... Nothing good can ever come from the North..

With the pictorial evidence online for even the blind to see, inecnigeria would play blind and stupid to do the right thing by not canceling & arresting the officers at that LGA. The winner will be declared and everyone will forget just like the many atrocities of this country.

Which outrage? When the former governor of Kano state Kwankwaso bursted to have used Almageries to rig GEJ out, who bothered to investigate his outburst? The major problem of Nigerian is the North and main problem of North is religious.

One Nigeria indeed

Where are the hissbah police? Hypocrity everywhere in the name of religion

Outrage? Children have always voted in Kano.

🤣🤣🤣🤣😅😅

Mstchweeeeeeeee how do u think the north always sums up to d numbers we always having during general elections?

Is this the change those who we thought had conscience voted for?
