Opposition presidential candidate Peter Obi has won Lagos state in Nigeria’s election, provisional results show.

Obi’s win is a major upset to ruling party candidate Bola Tinubu, who has won three states in his south-western stronghold.

The race for the presidency is a tight contest between Bola Tinubu, Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi.

The successor to President Muhammadu Buhari, who is stepping down after two terms, may not be known for days.
