Peter Obi Advocates Single Five-Year Presidential Tenure

Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, has called for a single five-year term for Nigeria’s president.

Speaking in Bauchi on Friday during a courtesy visit to Governor Bala Mohammed, Obi argued that the system should replace the current two-term structure, eliminating the need for a second tenure.

He cited South Korea’s model as an example, saying the adjustment would allow presidents to focus on governance rather than re-election campaigns.
