Mr. Buhari spoke Wednesday in Abuja, just hours after the electoral commission declared him the official winner of Saturday's presidential election, defeating incumbent Goodluck Jonathan by more than 2 million votes.

Mr. Buhari called Mr. Jonathan "a worthy opponent" and said he extends the "hand of fellowship" to the outgoing president.

President Jonathan's People's Democratic Party has ruled Nigeria since 1999.

Mr. Buhari, of the All Progressives Congress, is to be inaugurated May 29.

Nigeria's Electoral Commission chairman Attahiru Jega announced earlier Wednesday that Mr. Buhari had officially won the election, getting 15.4 million votes to Mr. Jonathan's 12.9 million.尼日利亞當選總統布哈里說,尼日利亞“擁抱民主”,告別了一黨制。

布哈里是星期三選舉委員會宣佈他贏得星期六總統選舉幾個小時後在阿布賈說這番話的。他比對手喬納森總統多得200多萬票。

布哈里稱喬納森是“值得尊敬的對手”,表示他向這位即將離任的總統伸出“友誼之手”。

喬納森領導的人民民主黨自1999年以來一直統治尼日利亞。

全國進步國大黨的布哈里將於5月29號宣誓就職。

尼日利亞選舉委員會主席傑加星期三早些時候宣佈布哈里以1540萬票對喬納森的1290萬票正式贏得選舉。
