Led by a lawmaker representing Lagos State under the All Progressives Congress, Wale Raji, about 60 members of the Federal House of Representatives are currently seeking amendments to the 1999 Constitution to transition from the current presidential system to the parliamentary system of government.
According to reports, the lawmakers identified the need for reducing the cost of government, and robust policy debates among others as some of the reasons for demanding a return to the parliamentary system.
According to them, this process will enhance a better and more effective reflection of the dividends of democracy on the nation.
