A  former Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Prof. Charles Chukwuma Soludo has called for a single term of six years for Nigeria’s president and five Vice Presidents. Soludo made this call on Monday at the Alex Ekwueme Square, Awka, Anambra State while speaking at the south east summit on restructuring Nigeria. He also suggested that the country should have five vice presidents, each representing a geopolitical zone. He proposed that presidents should serve for a single term and the years of the term should be extended from four years to six years.
“The tenure of office of the President shall be a single term of six years. There shall be five Vice Presidents. One from each of the six geopolitical zones.”
