Niger state Government has reportedly invited the school Headmaster, Assistant Headmaster and class Teacher of the boy who went viral talking about the state of the nation during a debate competition to government house, Minna for questioning.
Platinum Times reports that the energetic young scholar spoke at a school debate on the topic of whether voting should be mandatory in Nigeria or not.
In a video which went viral on X (formerly Twitter) on Friday, February 16, AbdulQuadri, kitted out in his school uniform, lamented that citizens of Nigeria are dying as a result of the actions of some leaders of the nation who he said are “greedy”. The pupil said going by this and many drawbacks in the country, it is not right for anyone to preach mandatory voting.
