Recall that there has been allegations that underage voting took place at some local government in Kano during February 10 polls.

Recall also that there were pictures and videos of underage voting in the Kano council polls.

This forced the INEC to set up a committee to investigate if the underage voters were on the national electoral roll.

The Commission said if at all underage voters participated, they were not on its register.

Yakubu, however, said most of the pictures circulating on the social media were old photos which were not connected to the recent election.
