Proceedings are getting under way at the national collation centre in the capital, Abuja.
The results from 17 states are now ready to be announced, the Independent National Electoral Commission (Inec) says.
First some people are addressing the Inec chairman.
The chairman of the Inter-party Advisory Committee (Ipac), Yabani Sani, asked for him to continue announcing results, despite a call by some opposition parties for fresh elections.
“The show must go on,” he said.
Daniel Nwanyanwu, candidate for the small Zenith Labour Party (ZLP), is backing this position.

Media teams are settling in at the collation centre in the capital, Abuja.
Times have kept shifting today for when the Independent National Electoral Commission (Inec) will continue announcing official results.
It was supposed to be at 13:00 GMT. This was shifted to 13:30 GMT. With the time at just after 15:00 GMT it looks like some announcements will be starting soon.

Instead of uploading a photo of presidential election results at a ward level to Nigeria’s electoral commission website, the BBC has confirmed that there have been occasions when mugshots of people appear to have been mistakenly posted.
The BBC’s team tracking misinformation about the poll investigated two cases highlighted on social media.
In one widely shared video someone navigates the portal of the Independent National Electoral Commission (Inec) to review results from Ado-Ekiti, the capital of Ekiti state in south-west Nigeria.
A photo of the presidential election results from that ward should be shown with the signatures of party agents. But instead a photo of a woman is shown on the screen.
The BBC followed the same process - and the problem has yet to be fixed.

It is unclear how widespread such errors are, but the revelation will pile even more pressure on Inec, which is being accused by opposition parties of bungling the election.
Inec has blamed technical issues for any hitches so far.

A counter protest backing Nigeria's electoral body is full of voice outside the building in the capital, Abuja, where votes are being collated.
The tens of protesters are showing their support metres away from another group which is denouncing the Independent National Electoral Commission (Inec), accusing the body of running a non-transparent election.
The pro-Inec demonstrators are also carrying placards, one urges "Nigerians to stand up for democracy", another advises Inec to "complete your job" as tension rises over the results.
This morning three opposition parties called for the results to be scrapped, wanting fresh elections.
The announcement of official results is due to start here at the collation centre soon.
The PDP chairman at the recent press conference in the capital, Abuja, where his party along with two other opposition parties called for the cancellation of the election, called for calm.
“We don’t want Nigerians to erupt,” Iyorchia Ayu said.
Earlier, the police chief warned candidates and their parties against inciting violence.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (Inec) has confirmed there have been major technical hitches, which has made it difficult to upload results on to its server.
At the opposition press conference in Abuja, the PDP’s agent, Dino Melaye, said the problems with servers should have been corrected before any results were announced.

A group of angry protesters have gathered outside the national collation centre in Nigeria's capital, Abuja.
They are carrying placards denouncing the Independent National Electoral Commission (Inec), alleging votes have been stolen.
"Everything happening there is all lies, all lies, lies... they are cooking up results," one man told the BBC as he pointed to the Inec collation centre.
Tension is growing in the country, three days after Nigerians voted in an election marred in parts by violent disruptions and ballot box snatching.
Opposition parties have called for a fresh election, alleging that Inec has bungled the poll - an allegation the electoral body denies.
The announcement of official results is due to begin in the next half hour.

The main opposition party in Nigeria has expressed its concern over the conduct of Saturday's election, saying it was marred by "problems".
A statement by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) criticised the Independent National Electoral Commission (Inec)
"Let’s be clear, the election is inconclusive and the Inec chairman cannot proceed without the political parties being present to object or accept the results at the national collation exercise."
The opposition party urged poll officials to declare Saturday's election as "inconclusive" and to organise repeat polls in areas where the electronic voting machines were not used and where the exercise was disrupted by violence.
Both the PDP and the opposition Labour Party have alleged there was a lack of transparency with the new electronic system, which was being used to accredit voters for the first time.
Inec has denied the opposition parties' complaints.
Latest results show Mr Tinubu has garnered over 44% of the tallied votes. His main rival Atiku Abubakar has almost 33% of the vote.
Labour's Peter Obi, who is popular with younger voters in urban areas, has close to 18%, having caused an upset by defeating Mr Tinubu in the biggest city, Lagos.

The national collation centre here in the capital, Abuja, has yet to start announcing results this morning.
Electoral officials says there are five states now ready to announce – but they will wait until 13:00 GMT (14:00 local time) to allow for more results to be ready.
On Monday, results were released from 14 of the country's 36 states.
Ruling APC party candidate Bola Tinubu is leading with just over 44% of the tallied votes. His main rival Atiku Abubakar from the PDP has almost 33% of the vote.
Labour Party's Peter Obi has close to 18%, having caused an upset by defeating Mr Tinubu in the biggest city, Lagos.
Nigerian presidential candidate Peter Obi, from the Labour Party, has won in the capital, Abuja - known as Federal Capital Territory (FCT), provisional results show.
Mr Obi got 281,717 votes followed by the ruling APC candidate Bola Tinubu, who polled 90,902 votes. Opposition politician Atiku Abubakar came in third with 74,199 votes.
This result needs to be certified and announced by the Independent National Electoral (Inec) Commission before it becomes official.
The Nigerian government has accused former President Olusegun Obasanjo of attempting "to undermine the electoral process" and "incite violence" after he cast doubt over the veracity of Saturday's election.
"Though masquerading as an unbiased and concerned elder statesman, former President Obasanjo is in reality a known partisan who is bent on thwarting, by subterfuge, the choice of millions of Nigerian voters,'' Information Minister Lai Mohammed said.
"What is expected from a self-respecting elder statesman are words and actions that douse tension and serve as a soothing balm."
In a statement released on Monday night, Mr Obasanjo said tension was building up in the country amid questions about whether the elections had been fair and transparent.
The 85-year-old asked President Muhammadu Buhari to “let all elections that do not pass the credibility and transparency test be cancelled”.
But Mr Mohammed countered, saying that Mr Obasanjo was not "qualified" to advise Mr Buhari. The information ministry tweeted the statement:

"In his time, [he] organised perhaps the worst election since Nigeria's return to democratic rule in 1999," the information ministry statement quoted Mr Mohammed as saying.
Mr Obasanjo had warned that the country faced "looming danger" if allegations of voter fraud were not dealt with.
Mr Mohamed accused the former leader of promoting "unverified claims" and "wild allegations picked up from the street".
He went on to praise the electoral body, saying they had managed to act "creditably", and pointed to preliminary reports by the regional body Ecowas' Electoral Observation Mission and the Commonwealth Observer Group.
He added that anyone could contest the conduct of the election through the courts, but urged Nigerians to wait for the electoral commission to announce the official results.

The announcement of results for the southern oil-rich state of Rivers have been suspended as the electoral official in charge has complained of death threats.
Charles Teddy Adias said he and his family had been threatened by those alleging he intended to rig the results - which he denies.
He says he will not collate any further results until this matter is addressed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (Inec).
The BBC's Nduka Orjinmo says Rivers state is a PDP stronghold but many of its young educated residents are supporters of Labour Party candidate Peter Obi.
There are also indications that its powerful governor Nyesom Wike, who is leading a rebellion within the PDP after losing at the primary last year to Atiku Abubakar, is backing the ruling APC party.
Our reporter says this will affect matters at the national collation centre in the capital, Abuja, as a winner cannot be announced until all the results are first collated at the state level.

He won by 179,917 votes, followed by the ruling party's Bola Tinubu’s 130,520.
