The rules clearly specify that the market resolves based on the winner of the 2027 Nigerian presidential election, explicitly covering any required runoff rounds. Resolution primary relies on a consensus of credible reporting, with a clear fallback to official results from the Independent National Electoral Commission if reporting is ambiguous. A long timeout date of October 31, 2027, provides ample buffer for certification and potential legal disputes, resolving to Other only if definitive results remain undetermined by that deadline.
