In full costume, a Yoruba god known as “Ara Orun” (People of Heaven) was photographed casting his ballot at a polling place in Lagos state.
The mask was given instructions on how to thumbprint on the ballot at a polling place.
Ara Orun were thought to be inferior African gods and goddesses with superpowers who descended directly from Heaven.
A photograph of the Yoruba god in human form casting his vote has stirred different reactions.
