Senate has rejected the proposed 6 years single term for
President and State Governors in the on going vote on the recommendation of the
senate committee on the review of the 1999 constitution.
During the clause by clause voting of the report at
plenary today, senate also shunned Local Government Autonomy as well as Mayoral
status for the FCT.
In his ruling Senate President David Mark said senate has
carried out an historic exercise by voting on the constitution and that inspite
of sentiments and emotions, the lawmakers were able to put everything in
perspective.
