As we all know that the Presidential election along with other elections held across Nigeria on Saturday 28th of March 2015. The election was extended by INEC as a result of a couple of hindrances to a successful election in some parts of the country.

The Chairman of INEC - Professor Attahiru Muhammadu Jega officially announced the APC candidate early hours of the morning, Wednesday, April 1, 2015 having taken all the results collated from the reporting officers, which started at the collation centre in Abuja, the nation’s capital, on Monday and ended on Tuesday, March 31.

After the announcement of votes received by all 14 candidates, the INEC Chairman received the results from the 36 states plus the FCT and proceeded with computation and tallying, a process which ran into the early hours of Wednesday, April 1.

General Muhammadu Buhari of the APC polled a total of 15,424,921 votes to defeat all other candidates, with Dr Goodluck Jonathan of the PDP polling a total of 12,853,162 votes to place second. Buhari has become victorious in a Presidential election that was keenly contested by him and 13 other candidates and followed closely in Africa & globally.
