“Are you an electoral officer, where are they?” The former president asked a journalist at the venue.

“Well this is where I will vote, but since they are not here yet, let me go back inside.

“You see now, youths of nowadays, you need to do more,” he stated.

At the time of filing this report at 10:30 a.m, no official has arrived at the polling unit with materials for the exercise. (NAN)
