Deflating political tension

As the controversy generated by the suspected Muslim/Muslim ticket by the All Progressives Congress continues to gather momentum, in my candid opinion, I will suggest an amendment to the section of the constitution that stipulates one vice president to read six vice presidents. These people will be drawn from the geopolitical zones of the country. These six people which will be carefully selected by the parties based on their abilities both in public office, in politics, or private sector will be the Think tank of the government of the day. They will be charged with the responsibility to draw the developmental programmes of each administration and will be expected to manage specific key sectors of the economy based on their competences. By so doing, we will overcome religious/ethnic bias and more so engage the best of hands to manage our economy. Switzerland is practising a semblance of this and it works.
