The 2015 presidential election wasn’t a play in the park. With Goodluck Jonathan and Mohammed Buhari slugging it out on social media, and Buhari emerging the winner every time, things were looking good for APC, PDP’s major opposition. In reality, it could have swung either way.

In the end, the cap will be sitting comfortably on Buhari’s head and Nigerians can say with confidence that the 2015 presidential election was free and fair.

Interesting things went down during this period. From underaged kids voting to purported election rigging in Rivers state, to the Jega vs Orubebe showdown. The social media was effective tool in following happenings around the country during this time.

These are the best memes from the around the social mediaverse.

What is good for the goose is good for the gander.
