While Mr. Jonathan has made some significant military gains over Boko Haram in recent weeks, it appears to have been too little and too late to convince voters, who gave his opponent bigger-than-expected majorities in many northern areas affected by the insurgency.
Mr. Jonathan, by contrast, was hurt by low turn-outs in his many of his own heartlands in Nigeria’s Christian south, where Mr Buhari took up to a third of the vote in some areas.
Mr. Buhari’s All Progressives Congress (APC) won 21 states, while Mr. Jonathan’s PDP won 15, plus the Federal Capital Territory at Abuja. Borno state in northeast Nigeria, worst-hit by six years of Boko Haram violence, voted overwhelmingly in favor of opposition candidate Mr. Buhari, with 94 percent support. Mr. Buhari also took the city of Lagos, Nigeria’s major commercial hub and home to an estimated 20 million people.
