Under the 1979 Nigerian Constitution, in order to be elected
President on the first ballot a candidate needed to receive
both the most votes nationwide and at least 25% of the
vote in two-thirds of the states. However, at the time of the
election, Nigeria had nineteen states, two-thirds of which in
exact figures is 12.66. A dispute thus ensued over whether
Shehu Shagari had received the necessary threshold by
winning 25% in twelve states and 19.9% in Kano State,
which Shagari claimed was two-thirds of the required 25%
threshold and represented the remaining 0.66 in the
constitutional threshold. Obafemi Awolowo claimed that the
threshold should be rounded up to thirteen states, which
Shagari had not met. The Supreme Court of Nigeria ruled in
favour of Shagari.
Parliamentary elections were held in Nigeria on 7 July 1979
for the first time since 1964 to elect a Senate and House of
Representatives on 14 July. The result was a victory for the
National Party of Nigeria , which won 36 of the 95 Senate
seats and 168 of the 449 House seats. [1] It formed a
coalition with the Nigerian People's Party in order to gain a
majority. [2] Voter turnout was just 30.7% in the House
election. [3]

member plurality electoral system. Each State was divided
into five districts, each of which elected a Senator. Each
State was also allocated a number of seats in the House of
Representatives based on its proportion of the population.
