The Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has called for the constitutional amendment of a single term of five or six years for elected political office holders across all levels of government in Nigeria, contrary to the current double term of four years each.

He made this known at his residence while hosting the Muslim faithful, alongside traditional rulers and political office holders after the Eid-el-Kabir prayers.

The delegation was led by the state Deputy Governor, Bayo Lawal.

While speaking, the governor explained that a term of five or six years is enough for any government to focus and serve the people and deliver on its mandate.
