The presidential election has commenced with a total of 18 candidates contesting for Nigeria’s highest office.
Millions of Nigerians have taken to their polling units to cast their votes in favour of their preferred candidates. Celebrities are also not left out of the phenomenon.

If Peter Obi wins today, I would gladly return my U.S passport and then get involved with the Nigerian military, teach em a few things here and there. Go and cast that vote for Obi today!
