The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has released presidential results for 35 states and the Federal Capital territory. We have assumed the two main opposition parties PDP and APC as the main contenders and as such have based our spreadsheet on the two parties. Here is what our spreadsheet with just one state left; So far so good, General M. Buhari is set to be named the 6th democratically elected president of Nigeria. He already has an unassailable lead that can’t be surmounted by President GEJ.
