Our lifestyle and that of the oyibo people are not the same and thus, we must find something that is going to work for us without imitating the oyibo people. So here are my suggestions to curtail ethnic politics in Nigeria and they should be enshrined in the constitution

1. The tenure should be changed to a single six-year tenure.

2. Zoning should be adopted such that each party shall present a candidate that is from the zone whose turn it is to produce the next president. Any party that fails to do so shall be disqualified.

3. The president must choose a vice from the opposite zone.

4. In the event of the death of a sitting president, the vice shall not take over but the person that came second in the winning party's primary. This will ensure that each zone completes their tenure.

These modifications will remove the politics of bad blood and ethnicity in Nigeria. Furthermore it will eliminate the issue of electing bad leaders because of ethnicity.

Imagine a situation where the west will present Osinbajo, Adesina, Fashola and Tinubu. They will be the ones telling us not to vote Tinubu.

Or east presenting Obi, Rochas, OUK and Nnamani. We know who they will choose.
So the house should look into this .

What you wrote is a nice suggestion but the implementation is the main issue.

Let's hope it gets to the right people. Nigeria has suffered enough.

Seems the House of rep are reading Nairaland, I hope this bill comes to fruition.......

Ethnic and religious politics should be eliminated in Nigeria......

Maybe in the long term but this might be a short term solution......
