Lawmakers in the House of Representatives are pushing for changes to the 1999 Constitution to enable the rotation of the Presidency among Nigeria’s six geo-political zones.
According to PUNCH report, they also seek an amendment to the Constitution to provide for “A single tenure of six years for the President and Governors of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Speaking on behalf of the group on Monday in Abuja, the member representing Ideato South/Ideato North Federal Constituency, Imo State, Ikenga Ugochinyere, stated that, “The reduction in government spending and wastage, efficiency in governance, and national stability by providing a single term of six years for the President and Governors,” will go a long way in cost-cutting measures.”
