President Goodluck Jonathan has called his rival, Muhammadu Buhari, to concede the election, a Buhari adviser and other officials said, after election results on Tuesday showed Buhari with an insurmountable lead.
The Independent National Electoral Commission had not announced a winner as of Tuesday evening, though with only one state's results remaining, Buhari led Jonathan by nearly 2 million votes.
The result marks the first time in Nigeria's history that an incumbent president was ousted at the ballot box and also heralds the end of a 16-year rule of Jonathan's Peoples Democratic Party.
