The head of Nigeria's voting body, INEC, has said that this vote will be an "election of young people".
Those aged 18-35 are the largest adult age group, standing at around 59 million people. Moreover, almost 40% of registered voters are under 34.
Universities around the country have also been closed, partly because of security concerns, but also to give young people the chance to vote.
