Parliamentary democracy is cheaper to run, but can be unstabe when you have too many parties. We should understand that it is the civil service that matters a lot no matter the government in power they are the tires that move government. 7 Likes 1 Share |

“President Buhari is my friend and I want him to succeed but he is running a difficult system of government. If he's truly your friend why not tell him "mallam this your fulanocracy is not working o" Seriously Tinubu should be bold to tell Buhari the truth instead of hiding behind his men to make coded statements. 66 Likes 5 Shares |

In as much as the same set of people that are running the current presidential system of government will be the same people to run the parliamentary system, nothing is going to change. The system may not be perfect but there is no perfect system out there. We have fundamental problems such as tribalism, religious fundamentalism, an inherently corrupt people, a society that doesn't value merit, countrymen that hate each other so much and an elite class that are absolutely unpatriotic. If you like, bring the system of governance in heaven to Nigeria, things won't change if we don't change our corrupt value system. 23 Likes |

seunmsg: Parliamentary system is cheaper to maintain, power is shared without concentrating almost everything in the hands of a single individual and it's an ideal system for a multi ethnic society like ours. Our best years of governance was under parliamentary system when each region developed at their own pace before military incursion into our political landscape. 7 Likes 1 Share |

TheFreeOne: There was corruption and mismanagement during the parliamentary government of the first republic. In addition, the country was so divided along tribal line that Nigerians rejoiced when the military took over. So, let's stop painting the first republic as a perfect government. The presidential system of government was introduced to unite Nigerians and reduce ethnic tension. The operators of the system are the problem and not the system. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

seunmsg:There is corruption and mismanagement in every government in the world, many still manage to progress and our first republic leaders were seasoned administrators with visions. Nigerians did not rejoice, some section of Nigerians did because they wanted power by all means. And the stupid coup planner are responsible for some of the current problems we are facing. The introduction of a presidential system achieved the opposite of its aims, it led to civil war, institutionalisation of corruption and massive degrading of our collective morals. Akande is spot on, no system can beat the parliamentary system for a large ethnically diverse and largely illiterate population such as ours. 13 Likes 3 Shares |

This is one reason I have got to be crazy with the entire southern Nigeria, middle belt inclusive. I mean what is wrong with these set of people? Igbo's, Yoruba, Ijaws and the likes. The cry for restructuring or change of system of governance stops once they get to Abuja just juggling for the little that comes to their individual table. Throughout Jonathan tenure, Tinubu campaigned vigorously for restructuring. Even Johnathan knew Nigeria seriously needed a change of system but waited dying minutes for political reasons. Igbo leaders around also applauded his foolish gimmicks. Now Yoruba leaders supported Buhari to Aso rock but were not courageous enough to pressure him into implementing the confab report or at least telling him in clear language we have got to change our system before Nigeria can work. Both Igbo's and Yoruba's and all southerners fall into the hands of these Hausa Fulani oligarchy all in the name of the privileges they enjoy in Abuja. Does anybody remembered how stupid Reuben Abati became under Johnathan? Has anybody wondered how dum and foolish Femi Adesina has become under Buhari? We all pretend as if we don't know our problems. Even our colonial masters are not running our system of governance. Excuse me pa Akande, why not take your advice directly to Aso rock to meet the certificate less dullard you supported in 2015 against all odds just because of politics. 7 Likes 1 Share |

seunmsg: You can't equate the level of corruption then with what we have now and I never claimed the First republic was perfect but manifestos of parties then made sense than what we have now which Yorubas will always attest to by Awolowo policies in the western region. And as per division aren't we more divided now than before? It's time we stop deceiving ourselves with the present faulty political structure and its glaring injustices. 9 Likes |
