And March 2 to 9 for gubernatorial, state parliament and FCT Area Council elections. The mood is an optimistic one from social media posts so far made by celebrities. So let check them out as Naija News took time to catch a glimpse of the celebrities at their various polling units

Omoni Oboli

Hours before this, actress Omoni Oboli was one of the first set of people that arrived at her polling unit. The centre lacked the presence of INEC officials at the time so she volunteered to take down the names of balloters to make things easy. When the electoral officials finally arrived, the effort of the actress had ensured that 500 names were collected.

“My dad and I are walking over to our voting units. We are very excited,” the DJ shared from her IG profile. The blazing sun could not stop them both.

Falz The Bhad Guy

Even Falz joined in the excitement. He tells over 4 million followers on Instagram to go out and make their voices heard.

A week prior, his response was of disapproval after learning about INEC’s decision to postpone the elections. He described the move as appalling — one that does not suggest regard for the electorates.

Fancy but also committed

Toke Makinwa

Toke Makinwa made sure to protect her nail from ink after casting her vote today. Her reaction to INEC’s postponement of the elections was similar to Falz’s because of a shared feeling of anger.

She has put it all behind now despite some delay noticed at different polling stations across the country.The OAP was happy to vote and has encouraged her Twitter followers to participate just like she did.

Mourning loss While many nurtured hope of a violence-free election, it was a dream that failed to come through.

M.I Abaga

Rapper M.I Abaga put his activism to work by voting despite being under the weather. But he was unhappy to confirm the death of a youth in Kogi State.
