Poll: Britain to ban Nigerians who incite violence even on social media

British high commission to Nigeria, Catriona Laing says those who invite electoral violence even on social media could be denied access into the United Kingdom (UK).

Mrs. Laing asked Nigerians to turn out and vote in the governorship and state house of assembly elections on March the 9th.

The high commissioner stated that elections are an important opportunity for citizens to exercise their democratic rights and choose their leaders.

She commended INEC staff and the NYSC who play a critical role in the delivery of elections often in difficult circumstances.

The UK will field observer teams across Nigeria on March the 9th as part of efforts to support Nigeria’s democracy.
