Human rights activist and lawyer, Dele Farotimi, has backed former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obis call for a single-term presidency, noting that past Nigerian leaders have squandered longer tenures without delivering meaningful progress.
Speaking during an appearance on Channels Televisions Sunrise Daily on Monday, Farotimi said,Obasanjo had eight years what did he do with it? Muhammadu Buhari had eight years what did he do with it? He ruined Nigeria. President Bola Tinubu has had two years, and he is taking us back 50 years.
"So its not really about how much time the person spends its a function of what they do with the time that they have."
Farotimi also emphasised that achieving lasting impact does not depend on a prolonged stay in office.
