The term of service for the president should be extended from its current four years -- renewable once -- to a single term of "a little more than four years," Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan said Tuesday in a statement.(http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/rss/edition_africa/~4/4taGsnSjCAA)
What is the justification for it?
President Jonathan shouldn't be talking about elongation of presidential term, now. Nigeria is facing security challenges (Boko Haram), epileptic power supply, unemployment, poverty, just to mention a few.
Those challenges should be addressed first, not elongation of presidential term.
