The results are trickling in and so far, Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC) is clearly leading Goodluck Jonathan of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) in the South-West, North-East, North-West and parts of North Central.
So far, Jonathan is only having a good show in Ekiti State in the South-West and Abia State in the South-East from results obtained directly from Polling Units as authorised by INEC.
In the North-East and North-West, Buhari is leading with a wide margin so far.
In fact, in Lagos State, President Jonathan is getting some serious bashing from Buhari.
In Ondo State that is even controlled by a strong PDP governor, the decamping of the deputy governor to the APC is really paying off.
In Oyo State, Buhari is winning. In Ogun State, Buhari is in the lead. In Osun State, Buhari is in clear lead.
However, for Buhari or Jonathan to emerge victorious, he must meet the stipulated constitutional requirements before he can be declared winner. If any of the wo candidates does not meet the requirements, the election will be declared inconclusive by INEC, and a new date set for re-run election.
For instance, Section 134 (2) of the Nigerian Constitution stipulates that: “a presidential candidate will be duly elected after attaining both the highest number of votes cast;
also to have received, at least, a quarter of the votes at each of at least two-thirds of all the states and the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
“If no candidate satisfies the requirement, a second election will be held between the two leading candidates within seven days from the pronouncement of the result.”
This means that a candidate most have the highest number of the 68,000,000million (suppose every PVC collected ends up a potential voter), he must also get at least, 25% of at least
2/3 of the states of the federation (24 states of the 36 including FCT).
