A viral video circulating on social media shows voters in Anambra State reportedly being offered Gala sausage rolls and Malt drinks in exchange for their votes during the ongoing governorship election taking place today, November 8, 2025.

The footage captures people standing in a long queue at polling units, being attended to one after the other. While one man was distributing the Gala and Malt, another individual was handing voters an unidentified amount of cash in Naira notes.

This alleged activity, widely regarded as vote-buying, has reignited national concerns about electoral malpractice. Vote-buying is considered an electoral offense and is strongly condemned for undermining Nigeria’s democratic process.

One viral post captured the mood online, reading: “Nigerians are selling their votes for 1 Malt and 1 Gala in Anambra State at the ongoing Governorship Elections!”

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and several election observer groups have repeatedly warned both political parties and voters against engaging in vote trading. Some candidates have also called on the electorate to reject all monetary or material inducements at polling units.

Is this a litmus test for what the 2027 election will be? Many Nigerians are already asking this question as discussions on vote-buying intensify online.

No oo they are all billionaires only North, SS and SW are poor.

I can see how billionaires are rushing gala, nce one.

My people can't stop amusing me I swear.

EBI N POWER PRO MAX.

GALA PLUS MALTA COMBO

The level of poverty is out of this world but na them get mouth pass, if it happened in the north or south west you will see them abusing like hell as if they are above it in their region.

This is highly disappointing.

I don't know what else to say

If it happened in the south west or north, this thread go don reach page 20

This is really serious. Like seriously, giving an adult one cane Malt and Gala for you to perform your civil rights? That's good, they should eat it for the rest 4 years.

I know that those who barely eat once a day will be the first to take the narrative to billionaire related.

just say refreshment is not a crime 😋😋😋 isn’t easy to stay on queue for votes

As bad and condemnable as this act is, there is no evidence this happened in Anambra state and such it remains an allegation

Na wa ooo
How can land of billionaires be collecting gala and malt in exchange for vote

This story is not adding up with what SE are saying all over social media because these same people claim:-
1) That they are billionears who do not need government or any other region
2) That their elections are free and fair in the south east

Can you see why they make you poor
