The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has warned over-aged voters to stay away from the general elections, warning that anyone less than 18 years who is caught accrediting will be arrested.

INEC Chairman, Professor Mahmood Yakubu, stated this on Friday while briefing stakeholders in Abuja, the nation’s capital on the Commission’s preparedness for tomorrow’s exercise.

“Under-aged voting is illegality because there is a statutory age for eligibility for registration as a voter. But what you should do is that if on election day, you find anyone that is apparently under-aged, or conclusively so, kindly report this to any official of the Commission or the security agencies,” he stated.

According to the INEC boss, the Commission is working with the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu to effectively identify areas that might disrupt the voting process.

According to Professor Yakubu, it is only Nigerians who have been registered for the elections that can exercise their franchise.

“Working with the Inspector General of Police, any under-aged person caught trying to be accredited or voting on the election day will be arrested. Voting is only open to Nigerian citizens who are above the statutory age of 18 (years).”

On those planning to sponsor minors to votes, the INEC Chairman warned: “Let me use this opportunity to warn those who may want to sponsor under-aged persons to vote on election day that they will be arrested.”

With the Presidential and National Assembly elections in less than 12 hours from now, the electoral umpire is reiterating its commitment to conducting free, fair and credible polls.
