How do we move the country forward. We have heard some but I'll give my reasons why I support the following

1) Single term of 6 years
Benefits: Reduce election cost, more time for governance, no longer bothered with power of incumbency

2) Rotation of power in the constitution
Benefits: Peace across geo-political zones, unity as people are now forced to have a candidate from a particular zone every election cycle, sense of belonging knowing power rotates

With the above items, Nigeria will grow at a faster pace as security will improve very well

Later we can look for ways to reduce legislators pay



Please this is not time to fight or criticize. The social media should also play its role in advancing our democracy

The elections are coming and politicians will start visiting. Lets educate ourselves and demand for what will advance this democracy

So come up with yours too. We can use this platform to change this country

FRONT PAGE should be filled with things like this. Please all proposals have their merit so put on the table

This is a very good thread and very good and sane points made.

How we wish OBJ made this happened back then, but he was Only bent on 3rd term.

Well, it is never too late!

GOD BLESS you OP.

It won't work.

Infact nothing will work in the zoo.

The zoo has no foundation.

Because if you don't do anything then your people will curse you till you die

Don't forget that its going to be rotated hence your zone wont have the opportunity for the next 25 or 30years (5 or 6 years single term) for president and something similar for governors



Please come up with your own ideas. I'm not Mr right and what I want us to do is use this to proffer solutions

Thanks but I believe there is greatness underneath all this problem we see. The most precious things (gold, diamond) are found in very dirty and difficult places

There is a lot of strength and benefit in our diversity. All we need to look deep and we will see it

Thanks for the time and effort. I'm here and will do my bit to make this country become a great nation

1 - its d current politicians dat wud run d decentralised power
2- same response as in 1
3-solves nothing with 13% derivation what does bayelsa and delta hv to show for it
4- lack of infrastructure (power, rail, and oda), something many countries have had for over 70 years. Production cost wud still be higher dan in those countries hence we still hv to import.
5. All politicians wud die be dat
6- some have argued population means more man power
Abeg nigeria is doomed

The zoo will surely go down.

Thanks for the effort.

Please note that if solutions threaten any set of people or region then its going to be difficult to sell

Solutions must have a win win outlook to be generally acceptable

which has to do with proper reorientation and integration of those people or region into scheme of things.
