For those troubling themselves over the 25% in 2/3 of the States,

1. 25% in 2/3 of the 36 states and FCT means 25% in two third of 37 states because the FCT is treated as a state and therefore we have 37 states and two third of 37 is 24.67 therefore you have to get 25% in 24.67 states or better put, 24(2/3) states.

2. Tinubu has met the requirement of 25% in 24 states and also got 90,902 in the FCT. Remember he needs 25% in 24.67 states(or 24states plus two third of a state).

3. Per INEC, 478,923 were accredited to the vote in the FCT and we need to get the 0.67 of those accredited voters thus 0.67 x 478,923 = 320,878.41

4. So to fulfil the constitutional requirement, Tinubu needed 25% of 320,878.41 which is 80,219.60 and he got 90,902

If it boils down to the mathematics of it, this will be it.

*Section 299 of the Constitution of 1999 provides as follows:*
*"The provisions of this Constitution shall apply to the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja as if it were one of the States of the Federation; and accordingly..."*
*Therefore if the candidate has scored 25% of the lawful votes cast in the election in 24 States of the Federation without the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja he has met the constitutional requirement envisaged by section 134 (2) (b) of the Constitution.*

Election is inconclusive if he doesn't get 25% in FCT according to constitution

for the avoidance of doubt on the status of the FCT, the supreme court cleared the air on this.

In BAKARE vs. OGUNDIPE (2021) 5NWLR (pt. 1768) SC. 1., Olabode Vivour-Rhodes JSC read the lead judgement thus:

By virtue of section 297(a),(b),(c) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999(as amended), the provisions of the Constitution shall apply to the Federal Capital Territory Abuja, as if it were one of the States of the Federation; and accordingly all the Legislative powers, the Executive powers and the Judicial powers vested in the House of Assembly, the Governor of a State and in the courts of a State shall respectively, vest in the National Assembly, the President of the Federation and in the courts which by virtue of the provisions are courts established for the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja; all the powers referred to in paragraph (a) of the section shall be exercised I accordance with the provisions of the Constitution; and the provisions of the Constitution pertaining to the matters aforesaid shall be read with such modifications and adaptations as may be reasonably necessary to bring them into conformity with the provisions of the section.

25% in two third of 36 plus FCT means 25% in two third of 37 states.

You are not INEC, a winner needs to get 25% in 24 state plus 25% in FCT.

24.67 States not 24, you have to avoid the Shagari wahala by all means. Any room for mathematical talk should be fully removed so you need to do the math as it is.

This is pure open daylight robbery

The youths are coming for them

It will happen so fast that they will not be able to escape

Massive Nationwide riots loading

Just wait for INEC to announce the results

220,000,000 people and how many soldiers do we have in the arm forces less than 5,000,000.

The security forces can NEVER crush over 220,000,000 Nigerians

Let that sink

You are also not INEC and INEC is not the supreme court.

correction, It is not 24 states plus 25% in FCT, it is two third of the 36 states and FCT. The "plus" and "and" make the difference.

25% in two third of 36 plus FCT means 25% in two third of 37 states.

No sir. 25% in 24 States + 25% in Abuja.

This question was posed to INEC before the election and that's the interpretation they gave. You cannot change the goal post at the middle of a game

No sir. 25% in 24 States + 25% in Abuja.

Can you quote the constitution in it's exact wording please.

They even misquoted Falana. What Falana said is that you dont have to win FCT which is correct

But you see that 25%, its a must-have

Section 134 of the Constitution provides as follows:

(1) A candidate for an election to the office of President shall be deemed to have been duly elected, where, there being only two candidates for the election –

(a) he has the majority of votes cast at the election; and

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

(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-

The supreme court is clear on this. Whatever INEC said (if they said it) is their cup of tea

Two third of states and the FCT means 36 states and the FCT = 37.
