With 95% Polling Units Collated, SaharaReporters Projects Buhari As President-Elect

Last night, INEC suspended the official release of the state-by-state vote counts for the keenly contested presidential election. However, with only five percent of votes remaining to be added up, our figures indicate that Mr. Buhari is leading incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan by more than two million votes. In addition, the APC candidate has secured at least twenty-five percent of votes cast in two-thirds of Nigeria’s 36 states. Mr. Buhari has so far won 14,855,820 million votes, with Mr. Jonathan trailing him with 12,107,628 million.

Our analysis, based on collated votes that were already announced in different states, shows that there is no statistical pathway open to Mr. Jonathan to surmount his vote deficit with very few polling units left to account for.

INEC’s formal declaration of Mr. Buhari as the winner of the presidential election will represent a historic moment in Nigeria’s history, being the first time that an opposition candidate would unseat an incumbent head of government at the federal level. Another historic aspect is the fact that Mr. Buhari finally triumphed on his fifth run as a presidential candidate of one of Nigeria’s parties.

Guy no.1 is wrong,the correct thing is that a candidate needs to win more than 50 percent of the total votes nationally

Guy, na lie. What is said is the truth...He is what is written in the constitution:

(2) A candidate for an election to the office of President shall be deemed to have been duly elected where, there being more than two candidates for the election-

(a) he has the highest number of votes cast at the election;

and

(b) he has not less than one-quarter of the votes cast at the election each of at least two-thirds of all the States in the Federation and the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.

Highest number is more than 50% vote na

PDP is cooking more than 3M votes from Rivers and Delta alone.... Real cause for worry.

Bauchi, borno, Sokoto and yobe will cancel them out.

Providence is not going to allow them to inflate the Delta numbers as planned. I say so with confidence because the state Collation Officer, Prof. Bolaji Aluko, is of impeccable integrity and will never allow that to happen. Aluko is the last person that PDP would want to be the collating officer of Delta state.

Aluko was the one who initiated the arrest of an INEC officer who started to collate without authorization. Having Aluko as the atate collating officer is like having a person with the political mindset of Soyinka being the collating office and expecting PDP to be able to change results.

With 800k votes in Delta, its game over.

aluko is the vice chancellor of federal university otueke. Hmmm. Can he be stubborn and return to jonathan's village afterwards?

Well, he is stubborn enough to orchestrate the arrest of an INEC official in Delta. I'd suggect that you go and reap up on Aluko. He was well known for high integrity since his days as a professor in Washington, DC.

Acgually, Jega plotted a coup under Jonnathans nose and got away with it because Jonathan was too much of a whimp to lift a finger and save his life. .

Just too glaring that he did not know about it.

I expected GEJ to be smarter than what I saw with this election results. It's a pity!
