How credible are Nigeria's election results? | DW News

Bola Ahmed Tinubu has been elected as the next president of Nigeria. The main opposition parties are launching a legal case, claiming the vote was riddled with irregularities.
Nigeria is Africa's most populous country with an estimated 216 million people. In the run up to the election, 87 million of them held the voter identity cards that permitted them to take part. But of these, just under 25 million Nigerians actually voted last week.
That made it the lowest-ever turnout in a Nigerian presidential vote. So what went wrong on election day?
