The Presidential system of government enabled the economic collapse of Nigeria through inept government policies and tribalism. Truth is that the Presidential system of government is virtually useless without a well armed citizenry like in the USA.

European Parliamentary system of government remains the best system of government one need to look at the success of the European economy and society today. Compare it with Africa where the Presidential system is in vogue and you'll see the difference. Can one compare the booming economy, well organized society, zero corrupt leadership with the poverty, suffering, bad leadership, outright looting and stealing of government officials, corruption, nepotism, tribalism and outright wickedness of African countries?

If we're in a parliamentary system of government, Tinubu will be out of power right now. There would have been a call for new elections immediately the prices of goods and services started to rise and a vote of no confidence will be passed on Tinubu forcing him to resign. Even the most corrupt Nigerian President Buhari would not have lasted a whole 8 years to use and steal and loot in a parliamentary system. He would have been disgraced out of office and sent to jail for stealing and looting.

Truth is there is little difference between the Presidential system of government and Military rule. The only difference is that power changes hands after 8 long years even if our citizens are suffering or smiling and a corrupt Legislature. We just have to flip the coin and enjoy whatever Leaders it gives us.

In a parliamentary system, it is not so because that government knows it could lose power at any moment in time through a VOTE OF NO CONFIDENCE.

The Presidential system of government is outdated and plagued with severe numerous limitations and should be SCRAPPED.
African countries should emulate and adopt the Parliamentary system of government as it has PROVEN to be the BEST SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT in the last 100 years since the end of the Monarchy.

Alternatively, if the Presidential system of government is to be retained, then all ALL AFRICAN CITIZENS should be ARMED WITH WEAPONS like in the USA so that they can use it to demand IMMEDIATE ACCOUNTABILITY from our government instead of waiting for another election every 4 to 8 years. Just imagine that the Lekki protesters were well armed like with the latest weapons. Can those wicked soldiers open fire on them just like that without the consideration of the consequences of the protesters killing them as well? The Lekki massacre can never happen in the USA, because American citizens have FOUR TIMES more guns and weapons than all the American security forces combined. 15 year old boys in America handle weapons

It is time we stopped the era of Sit tight leaders akin to military dictatorship in the name of democracy

Changing from Presidential to Parliamentary system is not the priority for Nigeria at the moment and it is unsafe given the level of demonic corruption in the hearts of our politicians and supreme court judges.

We are battling monumental corruption of our polithiefians and judges and changing the system of election will only give these criminals more leeway to hide under the confusion all changes brings to perpetuate themselves in power.

Although this bill is sponsored by a PDP Senator (Ned Nwoko) who practiced law in the UK, I hope it is not hijacked by MC Oluomo's boss to give himself tenure elongation.

For starters, the Parliamentary system in the UK does NOT have term limits and a British Prime Minister once served more than 20 years and a few others served 3 terms and even 4 terms.

We have to be careful what we wish for before MC Oluomo's boss in connivance with the corrupt Supreme court cash and carry judges gift the greedy drug baron a tenure into perpetuity for himself and his cronies.
