Against all odds, the 2015 Presidential election initially billed
for February 14 but rescheduled to March 28, has come and gone. General
Muhammadu Buhari, the APC candidate secured a total of 15,424,921 million votes
(53.95%) to defeat incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan who garnered 12,853,162
votes (44.96%). Wall
Street Journal says, "Buhari’s upset
of incumbent President is arguably the most consequential political event in
Africa in the last decade”. Congratulations to General Buhari, kudos to
President Jonathan for graciously accepting defeat. Nigerians are the true
winners of the 2015 presidential election.
