#NigeriaElections2023: Military Arrives Oba Elegushi In Lagos Where Only APC Supporters Are Allowed To Vote [Video]

The Nigerian military has arrived at the Oba Elegushi area of Lagos State, where residents are only allowed to vote for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

It was gathered that voters who are not aligned with the APC are being prevented from entering polling stations or casting their ballots in the ongoing presidential and national assembly elections.

The incident sparked outrage across the country, with many Nigerians taking to social media to condemn the move and call for an immediate intervention in the matter.

“Intimidation and voter suppression have no place in a democratic election. This is a clear violation of the rights of Nigerian citizens,” tweeted one concerned citizen.

After the video of the threat in Elegushi went viral on social media, the military arrived in several cars and upon sighting them, residents rejoiced and began chanting, “We must vote. we must vote.”

Watch the video below:

KanyiDaily had also published a video of a political thug threatening residents to vote for only APC at a polling unit in Fehintola Giwa Street Aguda, Surulere, Lagos state.
