Nigeria's Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has debunked the rumour currently circulating, which states that the electoral body- "has changed pattern of voting without majority of (Nigerian) citizens being aware of".

The rumour further states:"you don't vote with your thumb anymore, you vote with your index finger (warning finger). Any vote caste with the thumb is void (cancelled).....

Discrediting the rumour, INEC responded: "INEC's attention has been drawn to a fake News, making rounds, that the index finger, is the only finger approved for marking a ballot paper, this is false. At the point of registration, all ten fingers was captured, so any finger can be used for marking a ballot paper. Make sure that your mark is inside the box of your Party of choice, and does not stray into another box".
