You’ve voted, so what next?
Presidential elections are tomorrow, February 16, where the whole of Nigeria decides who will be in power for the next 4 years.
While that might be nerve-wracking for many, we still have to get through the elections. Rules, dos and don’ts have been put in place to ensure smooth running of the voting process throughout the day.
For one, shops and stores are going to be closed for the whole day. It’s basically a no-movement day.
Don’t freak out, that’s why we’re here. So, what will you be needing?
