Nigeria has won a non-permanent seat on the United Nations security council as a representative of the Africa region.
Nigeria scored 186 votes to win the election and will serve as a representative of Africa on the security council from 2010 to 2011.
The four other counties elected are Brazil, Gabon, Lebanon and Bosnia-Herzegovina.
The newly elected non-permanent members will take their seats on the 15-member council on January 1, replacing Costa Rica, Libya, Uganda, Vietnam and Croatia who will complete their two-year mandate on December 31.
