Article 134 (2) of the Nigerian Constitution stipulates that a presidential candidate will be duly elected after attaining both the highest number of votes cast; and has received at least a quarter of the votes at each of at least two-thirds of all the states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) of 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.

Its self explanatory, apart from having the highest number of votes, d winner must garner at least 25% in at least 24 states even if he loses in some of d states.

FOR THE ILLITERATES AMONGST US HERE, LET ME BREAK IT DOWN THE WAY I WILL BREAK IT DOWN FOR MY 6 YEAR OLD SWEET GIRL


It will perhaps help you understand the spirit and principle of the rule first.

WHY HAVE THE 25% PROVISION?
In a country as diverse as Nigeria, this policy was put in place to ensure that any leader that is elected enjoys the mandate and support of a large part of Nigeria.

Basically, it is insufficient to have a large number of votes from one part of the country. For example, even if I won 100 million votes from Kano state alone, I would still need to demonstrate that I have support from the rest of Nigeria in addition to the large votes I got from Kano.

I would need to get at least 25% of the vote in 2/3rd of the states in Nigeria.

Nigeria has 36 states today, so I would have to get 25% of the votes in 24 states.

NOTE that I don't need to win the 24 states. I just need to get 25%.

So, to recap, to win the presidency in Nigeria, I need

1. A simple majority of the vote which I could get from a small section of the country (or even one state)

ALSO

2. Demonstrate I have support in a large part of the country by showing that at least 25% of voters in at least each of 24 states supports my candidacy.

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

Pathetic.

Your Jonathan has even conceded the election

Go view your CNN now

Isn't it obvious. Why not do the mathematics and give us the result

Nice explanation y' all

so hin how many states did GEJ win?It is not even up to this 13 states you are talking about this is sweep

you dey here dey do analysis when inec has announced the winner of the presidential elections. guy let oga jona wait till 2019. otuoke is waiting to receive jona. hope they keep him there for good.

kolawaxxy:
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

una go shock when dem announce re-run.
