Printed in 1611 and known as the "Great She Bible", it is one of the earliest known copies of the King James Version (KJV) of the Christian holy book.
It will be displayed at St Mary's Parish Church in Gisburn on Saturday.
The Reverend Anderson Jeremiah and the Reverend Alexander Baker found the old book following their appointment at the church last August.
It is called a "She Bible" because Chapter 3, Verse 15 of the Book of Ruth mistakenly reads: "She went into the city".
Thought to be typographical mistake, this verse was changed from another KJV edition which said "He".
The Bible has been assessed and authenticated by the Antiquarian Booksellers' Association.
Only a handful of the "She Bibles" still exist. Oxford and Cambridge Universities have one, as do Salisbury, Exeter and Durham cathedrals.
The historical significance of the Bible was not highlighted in the parish records so it was stored in a cupboard at the back of the church.
Mr Baker said: "It was a really exciting thing to discover - it looks just like something out of Harry Potter.
"One of the wonderful things about worshipping in a church as old as ours is the sense of history that oozes from its walls and discovering the treasures it has to offer.
"But we were stunned to discover a treasure as rare as this. We knew as soon as we saw the date of the New Testament it was a significant find."
Dr Jeremiah added: "It's amazing to think we are able to hold a book printed as the direct result of the command of King James 400 years ago."
"This English language version of the Bible was created to encourage ordinary people to discover the Good News of Jesus Christ for themselves and it is likely that it was the book that first took God's word into many people's homes in this part of Lancashire.
"Now we hope to encourage the people of Lancashire and elsewhere to visit our church and discover this Bible for themselves."

Question: The third London Bridge attacker has been named as 22-year-old Youssef Zaghba, a Moroccan-Italian man.

This is part of a news article. Represent it to retrieve the first (missing) sentence of the article

Pakistan-born Khuram Butt, 27, and  Rachid Redouane, 30, both from Barking were the other two attackers.
Two more victims have been been named - Australian nurse Kirsty Boden, 28, and French national Alexandre Pigeard, 27, died in Saturday night's attack.
They were among seven people killed - 48 were also injured - before the three attackers were shot dead by police.
Zaghba, Butt and Redouane drove a hired van into pedestrians on London Bridge at 21:58 BST before stabbing people in the area around Borough Market.
Armed officers killed all three within eight minutes of receiving a 999 call.
The Metropolitan Police said Butt had been subject to an investigation in 2015, but there had been no suggestion this attack was being planned.
In other developments:
The so-called Islamic State (IS) group has said its "fighters" carried out the attack.
An Italian police source has confirmed to the BBC that Zaghba, who lived in east London, had been placed on a watch list, which is shared with many countries including the UK.
In March 2016, Italian officers stopped Zaghba at Bologna airport and found IS-related materials on his mobile phone. He was then stopped from continuing his journey to Istanbul.
Redouane was a chef who also used the name Rachid Elkhdar and police said he claimed to be Moroccan-Libyan. He married a British woman in Dublin in 2012 and lived in Rathmines in the Irish capital.
Butt featured in a Channel 4 documentary last year about Islamist extremists with links to the jailed preacher Anjem Choudary called The Jihadis Next Door.
The married father-of-two, who worked for London Underground as a trainee customer services assistant for nearly six months last year, could be seen in the programme arguing with police officers in the street, after displaying a flag used by IS in a London park.
Two people in Barking, east London, had also raised concerns about Butt, BBC home affairs correspondent Dominic Casciani said.
Metropolitan Police assistant commissioner Mark Rowley said an investigation into Butt began in 2015, but "there was no intelligence to suggest that this attack was being planned and the investigation had been prioritised accordingly".
At any one time there are about 500 active counter-terrorism investigations concerning 3,000 people of interest.
So far four of those killed in the attack have been named.
Ms Boden worked as a senior staff nurse at Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital in London. Her family have described her in a statement as an "outgoing, kind and generous person".
"We are so proud of Kirsty's brave actions which demonstrate how selfless, caring and heroic she was, not only on that night, but throughout all of her life," they added.
The hospital said that Ms Boden was "an outstanding nurse and a hugely valued member of the staff team in Theatres Recovery, described by her colleagues as 'one in a million' who always went the extra mile for the patients in her care".
Canadian national Chrissy Archibald, 30, was the first victim to be named. Her family said she had died in her fiancÃ©'s arms after being struck by the attackers' speeding van.
The family of 32-year-old James McMullan, from Hackney, east London, say they believe he also died.
Mr McMullan's sister said he was believed to be among those who died, after his bank card was found on a body at the scene.
A French national was also killed in the attack, according to foreign minister Jean-Yves Le Drian, which the BBC understands to be Mr Pigeard.
Manager of the Boro Bistro, Vincent Le Berre told the Brittany news outlet Le Telegramme how his colleague was attacked in a bar near Borough Market.
"I managed to escape him, but my friend Alexandre did not have that chance," he said. "He was hit in the neck with a knife."
The Met have set up a casualty bureau on 0800 096 1233 and 020 7158 0197 for people concerned about friends or relatives.

Khuram Butt, Rachid Redouane and Youssef Zaghba stabbed revellers in Borough Market, shouting: "This is for Allah," and wearing hoax bomb belts.
Police are now trying to piece together how the three men met and how they planned the attack.
This is what we know about them.
Khuram Butt, 27, was born in Pakistan but was a British citizen.
He lived in a flat in Barking, east London, with his wife and two children.
According to a CV obtained by the BBC, Butt worked at a security firm until 2016 and as a customer service assistant at Transport for London.
He also claimed he had a Security Industry Authority (SIA) licence, which is required by security workers and involves a criminal record check.
The SIA told the BBC it was was unable to comment because an investigation was under way.
A spokeswoman said a criminal record would not necessarily prevent someone from holding a licence, as criteria including the type and seriousness of any offences are taken into consideration.
Before this, Butt claimed jobseeker's allowance for seven months and later worked in an administrative role between 2012 and 2015 for a company based in East Ham, which manages Kentucky Fried Chicken outlets.
The fast food firm confirmed Butt had worked at the franchise, run by Auriga Holdings, and added it was co-operating with authorities.
Butt's Whatsapp account shows he was last active on the network at 17:59 BST last Wednesday.
He was known to police and security services; an investigation into him began in 2015, when one man called the terrorism hotline after concerns that Butt had been radicalised.
A woman also went to police after she became concerned that Butt was trying to radicalise her children.
Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley said police and MI5 had downgraded the investigation because "there was no intelligence to suggest that this attack was being planned".
Butt had featured in a Channel 4 documentary, The Jihadis Next Door, broadcast last year.
In the programme, he was seen to support convicted hate preacher Anjem Choudary.
It is also believed that he had been thrown out of a mosque after interrupting an imam who had urged people to use their vote in the 2015 general election.
His family condemned the attack, saying they were "shocked and appalled" by his actions.
His wife's cousin, Fahad Khan, has said Butt watched propaganda videos made by the militant group Islamic State, and wanted to travel to Syria. He also said Butt openly expressed extremist views at family gatherings.
Rachid Redouane, 30, claimed to be Moroccan-Libyan and was based in the east London suburb of Barking.
An Irish identity card was found on his body after he was shot dead by police.
Redouane, who was not under surveillance in Ireland, was also known by the name Rachid Elkhdar.
It is understood he arrived in the UK in 2006 and applied for asylum but that the application was rejected in 2009.
The details of when he arrived in the Republic of Ireland or how long he stayed there are still not clear.
He married a British woman, 38-year-old Charisse Ann O'Leary, in Dublin in 2012.
The couple lived in Rathmines, Dublin, and reports suggest Redouane worked as a pastry chef.
He may have intermittently visited the UK because he had a European Union permit.
He left Ireland after the marriage and settled in the UK before returning to Ireland in 2015.
Redouane is understood to have had a one-year-old daughter with Ms O'Leary, although the couple were estranged.
According to reports, he visited his child before carrying out the London attack.
Ms O'Leary said she was "deeply shocked, saddened and numbed" by his actions, adding: "My thoughts and efforts now are with trying to bring up my daughter with the knowledge that someday I will have to try and explain to her why her father did what he did."
Italian-Moroccan Youssef Zaghba has been named as the third attacker.
The 22-year-old lived in east London but was an Italian national of Moroccan descent.
Italian police sources confirmed that Zaghba was stopped at Bologna airport in March 2016 when he was on his way to Turkey, because of concerns he might travel to fight in Syria.
Material about the so-called Islamic State group was found on his phone.
Sources told the BBC that the database, which Zaghba was on, would have been shared with British security services - although it is not clear how this was done. There are various methods for passing on information either directly or through shared EU border databases.
The Italian authorities said they informed UK intelligence agencies about him and Italian police said they had a "clear conscience".
Speaking at her home in Bologna in northern Italy, his mother Valeria Collina Kadhija said: "From 2016 there were problems with my son - the fact that he was stopped at Bologna airport.
"He would say to me 'Come on Mum let's go live in Syria. Over there, they have a pure Islam.'
"I told him 'Are you crazy? I have no intention of going to Syria with you or with anyone. I'm fine in my country.'"

Question: The World Cup has come to Northern Ireland for the first time.

The famous trophy was brought to Belfast for the gala premiere of a film that heavily features Northern Ireland's match against Brazil in the Mexico 1986 World Cup.
Shooting for Socrates tells the underdog story of a father and son who are Northern Ireland fans, set against the backdrop of the team's World Cup exploits.
One of the driving forces behind the film is footballer David Campbell, who made his international debut in the match in front of 50,000 people in the searing heat of Guadalajara, Mexico.
He said the film has been four years in the making, and having the World Cup trophy in Belfast for the premiere is "a dream come true".
"It's very special that Fifa have allowed this to happen," he says.
The cup, which will be presented to the winning team in Russia in 2018, was brought by Fifa vice president Jim Boyce from Zurich to his home city.
Mr Boyce said Fifa president Sepp Blatter deserves much of the credit for the trophy's visit.
"When David first wrote to Fifa, they turned down the request," he said.
"I went to Sepp Blatter, I explained what was happening and he immediately said 'the World Cup has to come to Belfast'."
Many of the original Northern Ireland 1986 squad attended the Belfast Film Festival event at the Waterfront Hall, including captain Sammy McIlroy who said it was "a fantastic effort to get to where we are tonight".

Mark Woods has had Walnut since he was a puppy.
Now 18 years old and "on his last legs", the dog is going to be put down on Saturday morning.
But before his best friend's death, Mark wants to take him for a stroll on a beach in Cornwall and he wants company.
Mr Woods who lives in Newquay said he is "flabbergasted" by the response to his social media appeal for people to join him on Walnut's last walk.
More on Walnut's last walk, plus more Devon and Cornwall news.
He said: "Sadly I am having to have Walnut euthanised on Saturday and so we will be having a last walk together on his beloved Porth Beach.
"I would love it if dog lovers or owners and friends would join us for a celebration of Walnut."
He said the reaction has been "incredible" with people from as far afield as Surrey and Derbyshire offering their support.
The event is being shared on social media under #walkwithwalnut.
Mr Woods has three other whippets but said Walnut "has got something about him" and they've been through an "awful lot together".
That includes two marriages, three engagements and a move from London to Cornwall.
He is taking Thursday and Friday off work so he can spend time with his much loved pet and give him the best possible send off.
According to his owner, Porth Beach, which is closed to dogs during the summer months, is Walnut's favourite beach.

Justice Ginsburg said she regretted her remarks and they were "ill-advised".
"Judges should avoid commenting on a candidate for public office. In the future I will be more circumspect," she said in a statement.
The liberal judge, 83, came under fire after she called Mr Trump a "faker" in an interview with CNN.
"He has no consistency about him. He says whatever comes into his head at the moment. He really has an ego," she told CNN.
On Wednesday, Mr Trump called on the top judge to retire after making "very dumb political statements" about him.
Justice Ginsburg also recently told the New York Times she could not imagine a Trump presidency, joking that she would move to New Zealand if he should win in November.
"I can't imagine what this place would be - I can't imagine what the country would be - with Donald Trump as our president," she said.
Mr Trump hit back, telling the New York Times her comments were  "highly inappropriate" and a "disgrace to the court".
Critics on both the right and left said Justice Ginsburg may have risked her legacy to insult Mr Trump and could undermine the credibility of the Supreme Court.
Mr Trump, who has never held political office, pulled off a stunning win in the primary contests by beating 16 other Republicans, including seasoned governors, senators and congressmen.
He is expected to unveil his running mate on Friday and next week he will be formally named as the Republican nominee at the party's annual convention in Cleveland.

Question: David Cameron is starting a tour of European capitals as a bill paving the way for the UK's EU referendum is launched in the House of Commons.

The prime minister will attempt to persuade the Dutch, French, Polish and German premiers to back his changes to the UK's EU membership.
The EU Referendum Bill will confirm the question to be put to voters: "Should the United Kingdom remain a member of the European Union?"
The vote will take place by 2017.
The referendum bill was announced as part of a packed legislative programme in the Queen's Speech, which also included an increase in free childcare, an income tax freeze and the right-to-buy for housing association tenants.
BBC political editor Nick Robinson said the EU debate was "where the prime minister's focus is", adding that the answer to the referendum question "will decide whether this Queen's Speech is still being talked about in 100 years' time".
Downing Street said the draft law's first reading in the Commons was a "concrete step towards settling the debate about the UK's membership of the EU".
Mr Cameron has pledged to renegotiate the UK's relationship with the EU before holding the referendum, and has vowed to visit all 27 other member states ahead of a summit in June.
First up are Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte and French President Francois Hollande, followed by Polish Prime Minister Ewa Kopa and German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
Mr Cameron has called for changes to EU migrants' welfare entitlement, while some Conservatives also want the primacy of British law to be reaffirmed.
The PM has hinted he could vote to leave the EU if his requests are not granted, saying he "rules nothing out".
Downing Street said the choice put to voters "should not be on the basis of the status quo but on a reformed relationship with the EU that the PM is determined to deliver".
But some member states have questioned the need for any change to EU treaties, and ruled out any watering down of the key principle of freedom of movement.
David Cameron is starting renegotiation of the terms of Britain's EU membership ahead of a referendum. Here is some further reading on what it all means:

Why Germany is David Cameron's new best friend
Responding to the Queen's Speech, Labour's acting leader Harriet Harman said her party would back the referendum bill.
Outgoing Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg warned against complacency and called for Mr Cameron to lead the bid for Britain to stay in the EU with conviction.
UKIP leader Nigel Farage said the wording of the referendum question was "simple, straightforward" and "unambiguous".
He added: "However, that Cameron is opting to give the pro-EU side the positive 'Yes' suggests strongly that his negotiations are so much fudge.
"He has already decided which way he wants the answer to be given, without a single power repatriated."

During the committee stage of the Referendum Bill, Foreign Office Minister David Lidington said the amendment did "not make sense."
The Conservative politician said it was about the UK's membership so it should be about all of the UK taking a view.
The UK government will hold an in/out referendum before the end of 2017.
The SNP's  foreign affairs spokesman, Alex Salmond, moved the amendment on the so-called "quadruple lock" .
He said: "In America, 14 states can block a constitutional amendment, even if they comprise only 5% of the population.
"Even the prime minister, and many of his MPs, would concede Scotland is a nation. The United Kingdom is a multi-national state."
Mr Salmond added that the matter was about more than a "simple majority across the UK" and the outcome needed to be respectful of the results in the "component nations".
However, Mr Lidington rejected Mr Salmond's argument.
Meanwhile, ministers have confirmed that the poll would not be held on 5 May 2016, the same day as elections to devolved parliaments in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
They will also amend planned changes to "purdah" rules, which limit government announcements in the run-up to polls.
Ministers said voters must be assured the referendum would be a "fair fight".

Question: Lewis Hamilton says he will carry Jules Bianchi in his thoughts for the rest of his career, following the Frenchman's death last week.

Represent the news to retrieve its missing first sentence!

Bianchi succumbed to head injuries suffered in last year's Japanese Grand Prix. Hamilton was one of many current drivers who attended his funeral.
The world champion said: "I will be carrying Jules with me in my prayers for the rest of my driving days.
"I know he'd want us to race as hard as he did, and so I will."
Bianchi's funeral in Nice was also attended by Hamilton's Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg, four-time champion Sebastian Vettel, 2009 champion Jenson Button, Williams driver Felipe Massa and a host of others.
Media playback is not supported on this device
It  took place only three days before the drivers take to the track in Friday practice for this weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix, the final race before Formula 1's four-week summer break.
Hamilton now intends to carry a tribute to Bianchi on his car or helmet during the race weekend.
Hamilton said: "Saying goodbye to Jules was incredibly hard for everyone.
"For myself, I wish I had known him better. But from what I knew of him, he was a kind heart with a great spirit and a bright future.
"Now our sport embarks on a tough road ahead. We have been shown once more the dangers of our sport, that these should be respected and we drivers must commit ourselves to the chance that those dangers are there when we step into the car.
"We have made great progress for safety thus far and I know that governing body the FIA will continue to make steps forward to improve even further."
Rosberg added: "It has been a very emotional week. The drivers paid our final respects to Jules and said farewell. He was a very talented driver and a good guy.
"My thoughts in these days are with his family and close friends.
"Everyone will be sharing the same feelings in the paddock this week - but we must race on and race hard for Jules as he would have wanted to be doing himself."
Hamilton later asked his followers on social media to design a tribute for Bianchi which he can display on his helmet or car this weekend. He tweeted: "I need your help. I want to make a sticker in loving memory of Jules. Send me ideas and see the winning hashtag on my car/helmet this wknd."

The neurosurgeon has stepped down as president of the FIA Institute, but will continue in an honorary role.
The 83-year-old, who was a close friend of the late Ayrton Senna, served as F1 medical delegate from 1978 until 2004.
He played a major role in saving the lives of many F1 drivers after heavy crashes.
Among them were Ferrari's Didier Pironi at the 1982 German Grand Prix, Jordan's Rubens Barrichello at Imola in 1994, and McLaren's Mika Hakkinen at Adelaide in 1995.
Watkins worked on improving safety in F1 alongside his full-time job at Whitechapel Hospital.
He was appointed chairman of the FIA Expert Advisory Safety Committee, which was set up in 1994 following the deaths of Austrian Roland Ratzenberger and Senna on successive days after Barrichello's crash at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix.
Watkins recounted in his autobiography that he had tried to persuade Senna to retire in a conversation at the scene of Ratzenberger's accident, 24 hours before the Brazilian himself would crash to his death.
Senna broke down at the crash scene and cried on Watkins' shoulder.
Watkins wrote that he said to Senna: "What else do you need to do? You have been world champion three times, you are obviously the quickest driver. Give it up and let's go fishing."
Senna replied: "Sid, there are certain things over which we have no control. I cannot quit. I have to go on."
Working closely with then-FIA president Max Mosley and race director Charlie Whiting, Watkins was instrumental in transforming safety in F1 - there have been no driver deaths in the sport since Senna's on 1 May 1994.
He became the first president of the FIA Foundation for Automobile in Society in 2004.
Watkins will be replaced by Professor Gerard Saillant, himself famous for ground-breaking surgery that saved the legs of several badly injured F1 drivers, including Pironi, who died in a powerboat accident in 1987.

Question: Eight police forces are investigating whether Conservative MPs filed election expenses illegally after the 2015 General Election, the BBC understands.

The allegations centre around failing to register the accommodation costs of party activists who were involved in the "battle bus" operation.
The party has blamed an "administrative error".
A Conservative spokesman said the party had already brought the error to the attention of the Electoral Commission.
The activists on the party's battle bus targeted marginal seats.
The police probe will ascertain whether the expenses for the people using the bus should have been filed by the MPs' agents in their local expenses.
Failing to file correct expenses is a criminal offence.
The eight forces actively investigating are West Yorkshire Police, Derbyshire Police, Greater Manchester Police, Devon and Cornwall Police, Gloucestershire Police, Northamptonshire Police, Staffordshire Police, and Cheshire Police.
A further four forces are waiting for further information, the BBC understands.
Police can investigate such claims up to a year after the election expenses were filed, and West Yorkshire Police, Derbyshire Police, and Greater Manchester Police have started the process of getting extensions to the time limit.
A Conservative spokesperson said: "As is apparent from our national return, the party declared expenditure related to our CCHQ-organised Battlebus.
"However, due to administrative error it omitted to declare the accommodation costs of those using the vehicles. This is something we have already brought to the attention of the Electoral Commission in order to amend the return.
"The party always took the view that our national Battlebus, a highly-publicised campaign activity, was part of the national return - and we would have no reason not to declare it as such, given that the party was some millions below the national spending threshold.
"Other political parties ran similar vehicles which visited different parliamentary constituencies as part of their national campaigning."
The Electoral Commission - which is an independent body that sets standards for running elections - is also investigating whether the Conservatives met their reporting obligations under the Political Parties Elections and Referendums Act during the general election.
The Commission has powers in relation to national campaign spending, although its sanctioning powers are limited to a civil penalty of up to Â£20,000.
Bob Posner, director of party and election finance at the Electoral Commission, said: "The police and the CPS [Crown Prosecution Service] both have the power to apply to the courts to extend the time limit on bringing criminal prosecutions for electoral offences to allow for full investigations to take place.
"We have requested that they consider doing this."

The Independent Parliamentary Standards Association said it would look at whether the politician was paid money "that should not have been allowed".
The claims focus on the Coatbridge, Chryston and Bellshill MP's office costs.
A spokesman for the SNP said Mr Boswell would "comply fully" with the investigation.
He added: "It would be inappropriate to comment further while the investigation is ongoing."
In a formal statement, the standards authority said: "The compliance officer has opened an investigation to determine whether Mr Phil Boswell MP has been paid an amount under the MPs' Scheme of Business Costs and Expenses that should not have been allowed."
This is the second parliamentary probe related to Mr Boswell, who was elected to the House of Commons in May last year.
In January this year, the parliamentary commissioner for standards opened an investigation after allegations were made that the MP had failed to register financial interests.
A complaint was reportedly made by a Liberal Democrat candidate claiming Mr Boswell had not properly recorded his directorship of Boswell and Johnston Ltd.
Two other SNP MPs - Michelle Thomson and Natalie McGarry - are currently suspended from the party after withdrawing from the whip.
Ms Thomson has been linked to property deals that led to a solicitor being struck off, while Ms McGarry is at the centre of a police investigation into claims that donations made to the Women for Independence group have gone missing.
Both deny any wrongdoing.

Question: Nigeria's President Muhammadu Buhgari has vowed to save the country's entertainment industry from pirates.

He said the Nollywood film industry was doing well but unless it was backed, it would be "ruined by pirates".
The industry is worth $5bn (Â£3bn), but filmmakers still struggle to make a profit because of piracy.
Despite being hastily shot on low budgets, their focus on love, betrayal and witchcraft is hugely popular across Africa.
President Buhari ordered security agencies to identify those involved in copyright piracy and bring them to justice.
Nollywood is not the only industry affected by the problem.
Producers in Kannywood - the Hausa language film industry based in the northern city of Kano - are also complaining and had asked the president to intervene.
Mr Buhari said he would do everything possible to protect the entertainment industry.
"They [film producers] have built an industry with their own sweat", he said.
"It is therefore incumbent on us to give them the necessary support."
Nigeria's film industry analysts believe that Nollywood is churning out up to 50 films a week.
However, most of these movies are sold straight to DVD and filmmakers struggle to make a profit.

He is the first opposition figure to win a presidential election in Nigeria since independence in 1960.
"I belong to everybody and I belong to nobody", he told cheering crowds at the inauguration in the capital, Abuja.
He vowed to tackle "head on" the issues of corruption and the insurgency from militant Islamist group Boko Haram.
Nigeria handover and other African news updates
Mr Buhari, a former military ruler, has taken over from Goodluck Jonathan, who had been in office since 2010.
At the inauguration ceremony at Abuja's Eagle Square - Mr Jonathan handed over the constitution and national flags before Mr Buhari took his oath of office.
In his first speech as president, Mr Buhari reiterated his commitment to tackle Boko Haram, whom he described as "a mindless, godless group, who are as far away from Islam as one can think".
Will Ross, BBC News, Abuja:
As soon as Muhammadu Buhari was sworn in the invited guests in Eagle Square rose to their feet, danced and sang their new president's name. As he was then driven around in an open vehicle, people rushed forward to record the moment on their phones.
This was a time for celebration not just for supporters of the new leader but also for Nigerians who are proud that their country has witnessed this historic transition. By conceding Goodluck Jonathan steered the country away from violence.  We will never know how close Nigeria was to the precipice.
Moments after Muhammadu Buhari was sworn in thousands of excited young men ran through the security barriers to Eagle Square and pressed up against the perimeter fence cheered their new leader.  It was a stark reminder that so many in Nigeria are expecting change, including jobs, from President Buhari.
As Mr Jonathan is driven away I would not be surprised if he has a sense of relief and feels an almighty weight has just been lifted off his shoulders.
Mr Buhari also announced plans for the Nigerian military's command centre to be moved from Abuja to the strategic north-eastern city of Maiduguri, which is closer to areas where the group operates.
He said Boko Haram could not be said to be defeated without rescuing the more than 200 Chibok girls, whose capture last April sparked a global campaign to bring them back home.
"This government will do all it can to rescue them alive," he said.
Mr Buhari said the Nigerian economy was "in deep trouble", identifying "insecurity, pervasive corruption... and seemingly impossible fuel and power shortages" as key concerns.
The country's power supply crisis was "a national shame", he said, which had brought "darkness, frustration, misery, and resignation" to Nigerians.

Question: Edinburgh police have deleted a job advert tweet which included a picture of Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson.

The post, which also also included an image of pop star Zayn Malik, said: "Looking for a new job? Police Scotland are recruiting now."
It was posted the day after Malik left One Direction and it was announced that Clarkson's contract with the BBC would not be renewed.
However, the use of Clarkson's image angered some Twitter users.
The presenter is departing the BBC after an investigation into an "unprovoked physical attack" on a producer.
The police tweet had linked to its officer recruitment page.
A Police Scotland spokesman said: "Social media is an important tool for communicating with the public.
"It is never our intention to cause offence to our communities whenever humour is used during our online interaction and this post has now been removed."
Some twitter users were far from impressed with the post.
Kenneth Douglas(@KennethDouglas) commented on the post, saying: "are @EdinburghPolice looking to employ a violent bully? https://twitter.com/EdinburghPolice/status/581004307962556416 … #socialmediafail #tryingtohard"
Tipa indy italiana(@CaroleMagoha) also disapproved, writing: "How about protecting our kids from neighborhood harassment instead of exalting a racist bully?"
But others defended the tweet, taking it as purely tongue-in-cheek.
Margaret Millar(@Windy_West_Lady) was left asking: "Has everyone lost their sense of humour", while Carlyn Crawford(@_carolyncrawf) commented: "some people are so touchy".
Big Sleepy(papsmann) wrote: "so what? clearly a bit of banter!"
The advert also found a fan in twitter user Ka(@GreechanKate), who posted: "That advert is inspired. Still laughing."

When the cast was announced, host Chris Evans remarked, "We really do have a bit of everything for everyone."
It led to some people suggesting the show's creators had taken the idea of balance a little too far:
The photo released by the BBC press office was quickly turned into a meme on social media, as people added their own faces or subtitles to the original picture.
In one, the faces were all replaced with characters from the US sitcom Friends; in another the diverse line-up included Scotland's former First Minister, Alex Salmond and Prince Charles.
One of the most shared tweets honed in on the fact that the solo female presenter, Sabine Schmitz, is pictured in a tee-shirt with the symbol of a woman.
Lots of people shared pictures of mass crowds, introducing them as the new Top Gear line-up. Even Virgin Trains got in on the gag.
Soon social media was exploding with other "new Top Gear line up" memes based around well-known groups. They included a group shot of the US Republican candidates, the fictitious Addams family and the popular BBC 1970s series, It Ain't Half Hot Mum.
And what about the new Top Gear presenters themselves? Newcomer Rory Reid and fellow co-presenter Chris Harris shared their news in rather more understated tweets.

Question: Eight years ago the government rescued Lloyds by taking a 43% stake for just over Â£20bn.

The fact that the government is no longer even the biggest shareholder marks an important return to near normality.
Since 2013, the government stake has been sold off at first in a couple of big chunks and then in a gradual trickle and so this moment was bound to happen at some stage.
The government still owns nearly 6%, but global investor Blackrock now eclipses that and Lloyds is on trajectory to return to full private ownership later this year when taxpayers should recoup all the money they put in.
It hasn't been an easy ride.  The huge compensation costs of PPI mis-selling and intermittent market turbulence have hampered and delayed the process, but Lloyds, while not risk-free, can be considered pretty much out of the woods.
As a plain vanilla UK savings and lending bank, Lloyds was always going to be an easier bank to fix than RBS which is still about 71% owned by the taxpayer.
As a global bank with fingers in most of the pies that got burnt during the crisis, RBS has paid out over Â£50bn in fines and compensation and has its biggest reckoning yet to come.
It is still facing a bill from US authorities which could end up in the double digit billions for its role in the subprime mis-selling scandal that started the whole financial crisis in the first place.
While those negotiations could come to a head as early as this week (watch out for separate blog on this), RBS won't reach the point Lloyds did today for many, many years to come.

The RBS Shareholders Action Group has voted to accept a 82p a share offer.
The amount is below the 200p-230p a share that investors paid during the fundraising in 2008, when they say RBS lied about its financial health.
A settlement means that the disgraced former chief executive of RBS, Fred Goodwin, will not appear in court.
A spokesman for the RBS Shareholder Action Group said: "The directors met last night to consider the legal advice and took the decision that this matter will not now go to court."
He declined to comment on whether the decision was unanimous.
Shares in RBS fell 1.1% to 256.85p.
Shortly after the rights issue in 2008, RBS was bailed out with £45bn taxpayers' money. The state still owns more than 70% of the bank.
In contrast, the government recently sold its last remaining stake in Lloyds, which took over HBOS during the crisis before receiving £20bn of rescue funds from the state.
RBS declined to comment.

Question: Whatever the result of Sunday's run-off election in Argentina, it represents the end of an era.

Represent the news to retrieve its missing first sentence.

President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner has served two consecutive terms and under Argentina's constitution is barred from running again until 2019.
The swearing-in ceremony on 10 December of whoever gets elected as the new president will officially mark the end of 12 years of Kirchnerism, the political movement named after President Fernandez de Kirchner and her late husband and predecessor in office, Nestor Kirchner.
Irene Caselli looks at some of the policies that left a mark on the country and which have divided voters.
Passed in 2009, the universal child allowance is arguably the most widely accepted social policy in Argentina.
It provides financial support to parents who are unemployed or work in the informal sector.
Parents receive a monthly stipend for each child under the age of 18 for up to five children.
They receive 837 Argentine pesos ($88, £57 at the official market exchange rate) per child per month.
Eighty percent of that sum is handed to them on a monthly basis, while the remaining 20% are retained until the start of the school year in March, when parents have to produce school attendance certificates and vaccination records in order to receive the outstanding amount.
The scheme has been praised by supporters and opponents of the president alike although its long-term effects on health, education and poverty remain to be determined.
When Nestor Kirchner came into office in 2003, Argentina was facing a deep economic crisis.
The country was still reeling from its $100bn default - at the time the biggest sovereign debt default in history.
He began a process of restructuring the debt that had been defaulted on.
In 2005, a majority of creditors agreed to swap their bonds for new ones that left them with little more than 30 cents on the dollar.
A second debt restructuring in 2010 brought the percentage of renegotiated bonds to 93%.
The remaining 7% refused a deal and became known as the holdouts.
While even critics of Kirchnerism recognise the importance of the debt restructuring deals, some bemoan the government's failure to settle the long-running $1.3bn dispute with the holdouts, which has locked Argentina out of capital markets for a decade.

The opposition blames the Kirchners for rising inflation, lowering purchasing power and stagnant growth.
Since Argentina is cut off from borrowing on international capital markets, the government imposed strict currency and capital controls to avoid capital flight.
The amount of dollars available at the official rate is limited but demand remains high, leading to a soaring black market and an overvalued currency.
Government officials estimated that inflation would hit 14.4% this year, but independent economist predicted almost double that: 25% annually.
As inflation rises, the peso has increasingly less purchasing power.
The price of some basic goods has been stabilised thanks to an agreement between the national government and local businesses.
But critics say this only distorts the economy further.

When it comes to the justice system, the Kirchners' legacy is highly divisive.
Supporters highlight the government's decision to overturn amnesty laws which protected lower-ranking members of the military from prosecution for crimes committed during Argentina's military rule from 1976 to 1983.
One thousand former members of the military have been charged thanks to this change in the law.
But critics accuse the Kirchners of co-opting the justice system, slowing down and obstructing any investigation that could affect the government, from corruption charges involving Vice-President Amado Boudou to the death in mysterious circumstance of prosecutor Alberto Nisman.
Over the past 12 years, the Kirchners re-nationalised many companies which had been privatised during the 1990s.
Argentina's postal service, its radio spectrum and Buenos Aires's water company were nationalised early on under Nestor Kirchner.
Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner drove the re-nationalisation of arguably the four most important companies: national carrier Aerolineas Argentinas, oil company YPF, Argentina's railway system and its pension fund.
While some celebrate these as an important reassertion of state control in the economy, critics complain of inefficiency and of government interference.
In 2010, Argentina became the first Latin American country to allow same-sex marriage.
The law gave gay people the same marital rights as heterosexuals, including adoption and inheritance rights.
In 2012, parliament approved a "gender identity law", which allowed for changes to be made to people's gender, image, or birth name on civil registries.
However, discrimination and violence against transgender people remains high.
Three transgender people have been killed in recent weeks.
Left-wing critics say the government has not been progressive enough to legalise abortion or the sale and consumption of marijuana, as neighbouring Uruguay has.

Question: A shopkeeper duped customers by selling 30p supermarket chocolates as £3 Wonka bars, a court has heard.

Alexander Gwillym, 39, of Llantarnam, Cwmbran, sold the repackaged Asda chocolate bars as the Nestle brand from his shop in Cwmbran, Torfaen.
He and his firm admitted eight consumer protection charges to Newport magistrates and were ordered to pay a total of £1,880 in fines and costs.
The court heard Gwillym had tried to lodge his own "Mr Wonka Bar" trademark.
Magistrates were told Torfaen council trading standards officers had previously warned the defendant about his actions after he began selling the fake branded bars in September 2012.
An investigation found his store, Sweet66 Ltd in Cwmbran Shopping Centre, was selling repackaged Smart Price chocolate bars available from Asda.
The sweet shop firm was fined £400 and asked to pay £1,000 towards the prosecutions costs.
Company director Gwillym was fined £400 with an additional £80 victim surcharge.
The defendant had been told his bid to register a Mr Wonka Bar trademark was too similar to Nestle's Wonka trademarks and was likely to mislead the public, the court heard.
After the hearing, Torfaen councillor Gwyneira Clark, executive member for housing, planning and public protection, said: "Consumers expect to buy goods, including food, that are correctly labelled in accordance with consumer protection laws.
"The work of Torfaen's public protection service is vital to safeguard the health and economic well-being of the public and this prosecution sends out a message to all retailers that selling counterfeit goods will not be tolerated."

Question: Manager Mark Warburton insists he will not risk ruining the team spirit at Nottingham Forest by bringing in players on huge wages.

The Reds, who lost 2-1 to Barnsley on Tuesday after winning their first two Championship games of the season, have signed six players so far this summer.
Warburton, 54, said the club are "working tirelessly" to sign "one or two more as quickly as possible".
"But only players that add value and quality," he told BBC Radio Nottingham.
"There is no point in just adding numbers to the squad. A lot of work is going on and we are very close."
Jason Cummings, Barrie McKay, Daryl Murphy, Tendayi Darikwa, Andreas Bouchalakis and Kieran Dowell have all joined during the close season.
"There are really good guys here and I am a big fan of the squad being treated fairly," Warburton said.
"Some guys gave astronomical wage demands - that's the nature of the game and I understand that. But we will not break the harmony and the unity in the dressing room for the sake of one player.
"The fans can be reassured that there is no lack of support. We have come so close on three but we have to do the right thing by the club and we are not going to break structures unnecessarily."

With half of their Championship games played this season, the Bluebirds are 19th and four points from safety.
After dropping points late on against Barnsley and Brentford, Warnock accused some players of lacking desire and wants fresh faces as soon as possible.
"It's going to be a battle. I'm not kidding myself about that," he said.
With the transfer window opening on Sunday, Warnock revealed he was working hard to bring new signings in as soon as possible to ensure they do not repeat their defensive problems in the second half of the season.
"We are on 24 points, that means if we do the same in the second-half of the season we are right in the thick of a relegation battle. We've not got 50 points then," Warnock continued.
"We've got to improve in the second-half and we will only do that by an influx of players. When you look at the points we have thrown away we have to rectify that.
"We need some new blood in the squad. Two or three players will be sufficient until the summer. It's not got to be drastic measures. We have to be better and more disciplined in certain areas.
"I've enquired about three or four players, you are not going to get every player you enquire about. Clubs are coming back to me with a decision over the next few days. I've never worried about transfer budgets as a manager. I just want to balance the books and I work hard to do that."
The former Sheffield United and Rotherham United manager insists he will have the full backing of Bluebirds owner Vincent Tan in the January transfer window, but has not ruled out the need to sell a player or two if he needs more finances.
Striker Marouane Chamakh and Kieran Richardson both left the club on Thursday despite the pair only joining the Bluebirds in October.
Centre-back Bruno Manga is for sale, but Warnock said a deal might be hard to broker as Manga departs to play for Gabon in the African Cup of Nations after Cardiff's game with Aston Villa On Monday.

Scotland are on four points after four matches and sit second bottom of qualifying Group F, four points adrift of second-placed Slovenia.
Regan reckons the Scots can qualify for next year's finals in Russia, but only if they beat Slovenia at Hampden.
"That's really a must-win game for Scotland," Regan told BBC Scotland.
National coach Gordon Strachan has been boosted by the news that Celtic captain Scott Brown will be available against Slovenia.

And Regan added: "We know how important it is to get our campaign back on track. Gordon knows it. The team knows it.
"We came out of the England game [November's 3-0 loss] very disappointed. Gordon was keen to have a friendly match to prepare for the next qualifier and we've set that up with a match at Easter Road on 22 March against Canada.
"Whilst ever there is an opportunity to qualify for the World Cup, that remains our focus.
"We still have a number of matches at home this year - we've got four home games - and we'll be trying to get as many points as we can possibly get, starting with Slovenia here at Hampden."
Scotland kicked off their qualifying campaign with a 5-1 win in Malta and a 1-1 home draw with Lithuania, before back-to-back 3-0 defeats away to Slovakia and England.

Question: Families of some of the British troops killed in Iraq have launched a public crowdfunding appeal to pay for lawyers to potentially sue those responsible.

The Iraq War Families Campaign Group wants to raise Â£150,000 to fund legal work, including analysing the 12-volume Chilcot report on the Iraq war inquiry.
They hope to assess whether people who made mistakes, such as former PM Tony Blair, can be pursued in civil courts.
The report did not make any findings on whether individuals acted unlawfully.
However, it rejected the legal basis for UK military action, and said Mr Blair overstated the threat posed by then-President of Iraq Saddam Hussein and sent ill-prepared troops into battle.
There was no "imminent threat" from Saddam - and the intelligence case was "not justified", Sir John Chilcot, the ex-civil servant who chaired the inquiry, said.
The report highlighted a catalogue of errors in political and military decision-making, including:
Mr Blair has apologised for any mistakes made, but not the decision to go to war itself.
Roger Bacon, whose son Matthew was killed when his Snatch Land Rover was hit by a roadside bomb in Basra in 2005, is one of the group of 29 families involved in the campaign.
He said the group's determination to find answers has been redoubled by Sir John's "excoriating view of the establishment's tragic and error strewn display".
Mr Bacon said: "We must now ensure that every iota of the report is analysed in depth to determine whether there are potential civil legal cases. And we need the British public to help."
The families say they wish "to hold state officials to account to ensure such a tragedy, with such far-reaching and long-term consequences both for Britain and the world, never happens again".
It may be the only chance for a full legal analysis of the Chilcot report, the group say.
Matthew Jury, from the families' lawyers McCue and Partners, who have been working on the case pro-bono, said: "The report told us what went wrong and who was responsible but it was not a court of law.
"If they can, the families are determined to hold those individuals to account by bringing them to trial to answer for their actions."
"Not just for them or their loved ones, but to ensure that never again will our politicians act with such impunity in taking our country into an unjust war with such tragic consequences."
The campaigners say they hope to raise enough money to pay for preliminary legal work to build a case, before applying for legal aid to take the case for trial. The crowdfunding appeal is open to anyone, not just the British public.
The Chilcot report, which is 2.6 million words long and took seven years, looked at the UK's involvement in the 2003 Iraq War.
British troops were part of an international coalition, led by the US, which invaded Iraq, leading to the collapse of the regime of Saddam Hussein, who had ruled the country since the late 1970s.
The UK's participation was extremely contentious. A total of 179 British service personnel were killed in Iraq between 2003 and 2009, when British troops left Iraqi soil.
Tens of thousands of Iraqi civilians died over the period, though estimates vary considerably.

Eugene Dalton was one of three people killed after triggering a booby trap device while checking on a neighbour in Creggan, Londonderry in 1988.
The Northern Ireland Affairs Committee is looking at how effective government efforts have been in seeking redress for victims.
Semtex from Libya became the IRA's most devastating and infamous weapon during the Troubles.
Christopher Stanley, the lawyer representing the Dalton family, said: "What they want is to use the committee to ask questions about what, at all, did the British government do to block compensation from Libya back in the 2000s."
Claims were made at the NI Affairs Committee that deals were done between Mr Blair and former US President George W Bush to limit the amount of compensation liable by the Libyan regime.
"Mr Blair cannot be compelled to come before the select committee, but our legal action now is to find out if there was a route to compensation and if it was blocked," Mr Stanley said.
"If so, the family want to know why. We will have a conference with counsel tomorrow to discuss the form of legal proceedings we will be taking against the British government for its negligence in failing to secure compensation for the family."
Conservative MP Laurence Robertson, the chair of the Northern Ireland Affairs Committee, said they "cannot comment on individual cases".
The attack in Creggan became known as the "Good Samaritan bomb" because the three friends had gone to check on the whereabouts of a neighbour kidnapped earlier by the IRA.
The IRA later apologised, admitting it planted the booby trap device in a bid to kill soldiers.
Links between the IRA and Libya show that the country's leader Colonel Muammar Gaddafi helped provide the IRA with the weaponry they needed to wage an armed campaign that lasted more than 30 years and claimed more than 1,000 lives.
He was toppled from power in August 2011 after 42 years in charge of the country. Two months later he was killed after an assault on his birthplace of Sirte.

The Â£200m, 15,000-tonne, 128m-long vessel is being built at Cammell Laird on Merseyside, and is due to become operational in 2019.\nAnyone can propose a suitable name on a special website which will accept ideas up until 16 April.\nThe new ship will replace the existing polar fleet - the RRS James Clark Ross and RRS Ernest Shackleton - and work in both the Arctic and the Antarctic.\nNames that have featured on previous UK research vessels will not be used again. But beyond that restriction, the possibilities are wide.\nThe Natural Environment Research Council (Nerc), which manages British polar science, says it is looking for something inspirational - something that will exemplify the ship\'s work.\nThe chosen name doesn\'t have to be that of a famous polar scientist; it could just as easily be the name of a place or phenomenon.\nFor example, the German polar research vessel is called Polarstern, or Pole Star; and the ship used regularly by Australian Antarctic scientists is called Aurora Australis - another name for the Southern Lights.\n"Nerc\'s new ship will help put the UK at the cutting edge of polar research," said council chief executive, Prof Duncan Wingham.\n"Built in the North West of England, she will help bring an economic boost to the region and to the UK shipbuilding industry.\n"Today we are launching our campaign to bring our ship to the UK people, asking for their help to find her a name that encapsulates her role at the forefront of UK science.\n"We are excited to hear what the public have to suggest and we really are open to ideas."\nThe funding of a new British RRS to work in icy seas was announced by Chancellor George Osborne in April 2014, with a contract to build the ship being given to Cammell Laird last year.\nSince then, the Merseyside shipbuilder has been going through a detailed design exercise and expects eventually to be employing 400-500 people on the vessel\'s construction.\nThe ship will feature a helipad, cranes, onboard labs, and have the ability to deploy subs and other ocean survey and sampling gear.\nSome of this equipment will go through an enclosed "moon pool", or "wet porch", inside the vessel.\nDr Robert Larter, a geophysicist working with the British Antarctic Survey, says the ship will have greatly increased scientific capabilities, especially in relation to the importance of the Southern Ocean and the role it plays in Earth\'s climate system.\n"This is an area that has the most powerful ocean currents in the world - the Antarctic Circumpolar Current is the link between all the world\'s oceans; and the seas around Antarctica are the \'factories\' of most of the world\'s bottom water which drives the over-turn of the oceans. So, there\'s a lot to learn and this new ship will help us do that," he told BBC News.\nThe introduction of the new ship does mean the UK will be reducing its polar fleet from two to one vessel.\nBut the hope is this reduction in capacity can be mitigated, in part, by the efficiencies that come from operating a brand new super-ship.\nIt will have to take on not only all the research activities done predominantly now by the RRS James Clark Ross, but all the logistics work done mostly by the RRS Ernest Shackleton.\nThe new ship will certainly have greater individual endurance than its predecessors - the number of days it can operate at sea; and with its ice-breaking capabilities will also be able to go to places the earlier vessels could not.\n"It\'s amazing to think of the places we have gone with the existing ships, but there is always an element of risk," said Dr Larter.\n"With this bigger, more powerful ship, we\'ll have the confidence to go to those places, knowing also that we will be able to get out.\n"With sea-ice, that\'s always a factor that plays on the mind of a captain: you can get in, but can you get out?
