The All Progressives Congress (APC) declared victory for its
candidate, former military ruler Muhammadu Buhari, in Nigeria's presidential
election on Tuesday and said the country was "witnessing history".
"This is the first time in Nigeria that a sitting
government will be voted out of power using purely democratic means," APC
spokesman Lai Mohammed told Reuters at the house in the capital where Buhari
was watching the results come in.
"The people of Nigeria have taken over."
He said the APC had no reason to doubt that President
Goodluck Jonathan would concede defeat.
"He said several times that he would relinquish power
if he was voted out in a free and fair election," Mohammed said.
