2027 Presidential Election

INEC's final list names 18 presidential tickets for the election on 16 January 2027. To win in the first round a candidate needs the most votes and at least 25% in two-thirds of the states and the FCT.
2023 Presidential Election
President
INEC declared Bola Ahmed Tinubu (APC) winner on 1 March 2023 with 8,794,726 votes, ahead of Atiku Abubakar (PDP, 6,984,520), Peter Obi (LP, 6,101,533) and Rabiu Kwankwaso (NNPP, 1,496,687). The Presidential Election Petition Court dismissed the petitions of Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi and the APM on 6 Sep 2023 and affirmed Tinubu as lawfully elected; the Supreme Court dismissed the appeals of Atiku and Obi on 26 Oct 2023. The results by state cover the four leading candidates; the other candidates' state-level figures were not available from the sources used, so each state's total here is of those four.
