In addition to winning the majority of the votes, the winner must win 25% of the votes in 24 states (i.e. 2/3 of 36 states). Buhari won the popular votes and achieved 25% of votes in 26 states, therefore, he is elected President and Commander-in-Chief

That awkward moment when Association of Witches, Association of Herbalists, Gurumaraji and other clandestine groups support GEJ. It leaves me with the question who then will God support? Can God and devil support the same candidate? That's absolutely impossicant!

Sai Buhari!!!

Both parties are presently enjoying the 25% issue, what is left is the "outright popular vote".

But what is delaying the announcing of the remaining 3 states nah?

Or are they trying to play the more you see the less you understand game with us?

Jega. Meaning: to be inexplicably chilled in the midst of stupidity or conflict. Usage. Olopa slapped me, I just Jegaed.

Wohoho! Nigerians are celebrating, PDP is sinking, results are trickling, INEC is announcing, APC is smiling, change is looming, youths are tweeting, facebookers are posting, whatsappers are broadcasting, south- south is rigging, international community is watching, orubebe is raking, obasanjo is warning, Yorubas are progressing, the North is jubilating, igbos are regretting, jonathing is parking, boko haram is relocating, Sure-p is closing, Tan is folding, fani Kayode is purging, Muazu is watching, Asari dokubo is wailing, oritsejafor is crying, patience jonathan is speaking and I am posting.



Meanwhile. .. .
Congratulations! It has been a long and strenuous battle to effect a change dating back days, weeks, months, years for some people! They looked down upon us, mocked us, derided our personalities. But we stood firm stood tall, and never wavered. Now we can go to sleep knowing our lives is secure, knowing we can wake up happy in the morning to reap the fruit of our labour, we can travel abroad without fearing foreign countries mocking us..... God bless GMB, God bless PYO, God bless Asiwaju(small) God bless Nigeria. Onto the future we march #teamGMB

What I pray Buhari can thwart as much as possible: NEPOTISM

Buhari has won 25 % of 26 states

.

Whether they like it or not... GMB must Ascend his rightful throne! Click like for our incoming President!

Sai baba

Gej Hat don suffer.
Sai buhari

sai Buhari

GMB/PYO qualified for 25% in all the 19 Northern
States and Yoriba's 6 States. All what they need
is second provision which is simple majority.
They
think as if a presidential candidate need
minimum of 25% in all the 36 states of the
federation. No. Never so at all. It is only in 24
states, i.e., Two-Third of 36 states. Now, Buhari
has escaped that requirement for he has
minimum of 25% in all the North's 19 states and
Yoruba's 6 states including Ekiti where he lost,
making 25 states already above what is required.
He even has 40% in Ekiti. All that remains for him
now is the second provision which requires
simple majority.

on this note, permit me to beg for likes.

if you believe gmb has won already, click like.
if you think gej can still make it, click share

Maths no hard op

Course Code: INEC 002
Course Title: ELECTORAL SYSTEM EDUCATION!!!

Course Summary:

1. Criterion 1: A presidential candidate must secure at least 25% of votes cast in each of at least 24 states of the Federation before he could have a chance of winning an election.

2. If a candidate has the highest number of cast votes nationwide but fails to satisfy Criterion 1, he won't be declared the winner. Instead, the candidate with a lower total votes but meets Criterion 1 will be declared the WINNER.

3. Where there is no winner, a RUN-OFF election between the two closest candidates will be conducted within 7 days of the first election.

4. Criterion 2: From the re-off election, winning is by simple MAJORITY i.e. the presidential candidate with the higher number of votes cast will be declared the WINNER even if it is just by one vote.

COPIED...

It's at least 1/4(25%) votes in 2/3 of 36 States (24 states) regardless of whether he loses or wins in the 24 states.
That's the first criteria that must be met.
Then the normal rule of "highest votes" follows.
Buhari already has 25% votes in more than 25 States self. So nothing to worry about.
