A team of data analysts has projected the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, as the potential winner of the February 25th presidential election in Nigeria. According to a statement released by the organisers of the poll, Tinubu is rated higher than candidates from other political parties based on four key variables of political geography, religion, resources, and class.
The poll was conducted over an eight-week period through a combination of online and phone surveys. The results were designed to ensure accuracy and unbiased representation. The statement revealed that the poll also focused on the spread of political parties, incumbency factors in states, religion, and the personality of candidates. The impact of social media influencers, religious leaders, professional organisations, and the young population of voters on the victory of each of the leading candidates was also examined.
The statement acknowledged previous polls that put other candidates ahead of Tinubu but alleged that earlier polls relied on data based on manipulation and sectional polling. The team of data analysts posited that Tinubu’s projected victory is solidly premised on the fact that he is from a region with the second largest voting population in the country and enjoyed the widest home support from his geopolitical zone, where even political influencers in the major opposition political party are routing for his victory at the poll.
In conclusion, the statement reiterated that the projection of Bola Tinubu’s victory was based on unbiased data and factors that would influence the outcome of the presidential election in Nigeria.
