Uzor-Kalu said single-term for leaders would help reduce the cost of governance.

According to the former governor, such a plan would also foster rapid growth across states and the nation as a whole.

He added that the current two-term of four years per tenure is expensive and a distraction for the leaders who spent their entire time planning and restrategising for the reelection.

He said, “When you become a governor or a president, their eyes are on re-election.

“They are not even thinking about what people will do or what people will get. Every politician is looking for re-election.

“So, the only way to solve this problem is by giving no incentive to anybody, doing one term of six years.

Uzor-Kalu said the move would go a long way to improve development and boost performance among leaders across the nation.

“It will go a long way in boosting performance because most of people think they need to make money for re-election,” he said.
