dc.description.abstractElection is a vital pre-requisite for peaceful and smooth change of government in a democratic dispensation. For elections to be successful there are certain procedures before during and after the election. Voters’ Education is one important aspect of the pre-election preparation of eligible voters on the do and don’ts of the electoral process. It would be disheartening that since voter’s education activities have been carried out in the country it has not achieved its desired result. These can be seen in the programmes organized by the Electoral Empire (INEC) and other non-governmental organizations in order to provide voters with quality education about their role in the electoral process. This is due to the number of voided votes in almost all categories of the last general elections in 2011. This research therefore examined the impact Social Studies Education as a school disciplined has on the Voters’ Education of NCE students in some selected Colleges of Education in Kaduna State. The research deign was the quasi-experimental design with a sample size of 234 students who were randomly selected. The data obtained was analyzed using the descriptive statistics while the hypotheses were tested using the independent sample t-test. The research findings revealed that if given the right atmosphere and other vital ingredients Social Studies Education has great potential for the promotion of efficient Voters’ Education of eligible voters. Thus as the saying goes – Catch them youngen_US
