Twenty-four-hours after 19-year-old Daniel Usman, an undergraduate, was shot dead at a polling unit in Kogi State, his friends have continued to mourn him on social media.

This was even as fresh information emerged that another teenage voter, Monsuru Hamzat, was killed at Lako compound in Ibadan South East Local Government Area during Saturday’s elections.

Usman was killed by flying bullets from political thugs in Kogi State.

Usman was a first time voter and was killed at Ajetachi polling unit, Anyigba, Kogi State and ironically 24 hours to his death, had taken to his Facebook wall to preach against political violence.

He wrote: “Vote and not fight! Respect Yourself and stay out of trouble…God bless Nigeria.”

The write up on his wall turned out to be his last.

An alleged eyewitness, Ilemona on twitter brought another angle to the death of Usman. Ilemona said that Usman was killed while insisting on voting for any candidate of his choice. Ilemona said: “Daniel Usman was shot and killed today at his polling unit in Ayangba, Kogi State while insisting he had a right to vote for any candidate of his choice and that he wasn’t going to be compelled to vote for APC. He was only 19.
