Nigerian President-elect Bola Tinubu would most likely have lost the election had it been held last year - before the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) split three ways.
The combined votes of his three closest rivals - one member and two former members of PDP - would have been enough for a comfortable return to power for the party, as together they received 60% of the vote.
The PDP"s Atiku Abubakar got 29% of ballots cast, the Labour Party"s Peter Obi got 25% and Rabiu Kwankwaso of the NNPP got 6%, while Nigeria"s next president was elected with 37%.
It would have been easy for a united PDP to capitalise on an electorate tired of the economic hardship, widespread insecurity and record inflation experienced under outgoing President Muhammadu Buhari and the governing All Progressives Congress (APC). ufaเว็บตรง
