    The 2023 presidential election is here. And as a responsible Nigerian citizen going out to vote, here are tips on how to dress the part. 

    Fly our Naija colours

    It鈥檚 pretty simple. If you want fellow voters to take you seriously, make sure your outfits are green-white-green. A green top, white pants and green shoes. 

    Or settle for black

    When in doubt, wear black. It won鈥檛 get stained easily, and it鈥檚 symbolic. You鈥檙e there to bury the shege of the last eight years after all.

    It has to be jeans

    This is not the time for ashawo shorts or Ayra Starr skirts. Wear comfortable clothes, so when you need to tell someone you鈥檒l share one trouser, they鈥檇 know you mean it. 

    Or combat shorts

    You鈥檙e there to fight for your future. So make that clear. 

    You need them boots

    Too bad those red boots haven鈥檛 gotten to Nigeria yet. But your shoes still need to give a 鈥淚 go match you for head鈥 vibe.

    Have your shades handy 

    Not sunglasses, shades. They need to be large and black, like the type our mothers used to wear. So before someone thinks of starting small talk, they’ll look at your face and reconsider. 

    Face caps are a must

    This isn鈥檛 even about fashion. Forget about the on-and-off harmattan, the weather is still HOT, so you鈥檒l need this.
