Marginalisation: Yakasai Advocates Parliamentary System

By Augustine Adah

 An elder statesman, Alhaji Tanko Yakasai has advocated a return to parliamentary system of government instead of the present presidential system of government as a panacea to complaints of marginalization by sections of the country.

 Yakasai who is a co-founder of the Arewa Consultative Forum, (ACF), made the suggestion   in Kano while speaking with the press.

Recall that the elder statesman  who is not comfortable with the present system of government in the country  has been agitating for a return to cabinet system of government, which he said was cheaper to operate when compared with the current presidential system of government in the country.

He further suggested zoning of political offices as a viable political option saying it would take care of the aspirations of different groups in the country.

He said, “Once power goes round, at least, once or twice, the different groups will be reassured that someday, they will get hold of the opportunity to produce the next President of the country”.

Though zoning according to Yakasai is not the best choice, his endorsement of the political option stemmed from the need to keep Nigeria together which is paramount to everyone.
