“The Bill by the 60 members of HOR for a parliamentary system of Govt in Nigeria is a very important development. I encourage Nigerians to get invoked in the debate and see it through. We may decide to run the parliamentary system with adaptations or come up with our own hybrid of the presidential/parliamentary system that brings out the best in both together in a unique Nigerian way. What is certain is that the current system is not working and we cannot afford to wait for another 7 years!”

“What matters is that it delivers good governance, it is not expensive to run and that the energies of Nigerians at home and in the diaspora come together for the much awaited transformation of our country.”
