Celebrations are taking place in Nigeria, with the country poised to have a new President.
"I'm very excited today and I don't even know what to say because I have witnessed about nine elections but it's only this time that I'm very happy, because it is a free and fair election."
It's been confirmed incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan has conceded defeat to former military leader Muhammadu Buhari.
Nigeria's National Electoral Commission is still working on announcing the final tally in the polls.
However, early numbers indicate Buhari, now President-elect, has an overwhelming majority of the votes.
Buhari ruled Nigeria from late 1983 until August 1985 after ousting his predecessor in a coup.
Jonathan's party has governed since the decades of military dictatorship in Nigeria ended in 1999.
Buhari campaigned on a platform of being better-positioned to defeat the Boko Haram insurgency which has left thousands dead in Nigeria.
