| Dr Nicolas Felix of the Peoples Coalition Party (PCP) surprisingly finished third in the 2019 presidential election |
One of the biggest shocks of the recently-concluded 2019 presidential election is the emergence of a widely-unknown Dr Nicolas Felix as the second runner-up.
In an election contested by 73 candidates, many of the candidates that didn't belong to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) or main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) had campaigned majorly as alternative candidates popularly called the Third Force.
Even though he finished a distant third behind APC's President Muhammadu Buhari and PDP's Atiku Abubakar, many were still shocked by the huge amount of votes polled by Dr Felix especially since his name didn't regularly come up in Third Force conversations before the election.
