 The provisional results from 35 states of the country including the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, President Goodluck Jonathan of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, is on his way to retaining presidential power until May 29, 2015.

And barring further delays, he will be declared as winner of the 2011 presidential elections today by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, whose Chairman, Prof Attahiru Jega, said the results would be ready in 48 hours after the polls.
Jonathan swept the polls in all the 17 states of the South except Osun, which was won by Malam Nuhu Ribadu of the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN.
