NSTopinion: Many folks have come up with persuasive arguments about the way one government quickly morphed into another.

But everyone hopes for the storm to cease, for a lawful and peaceful resolution. Perhaps even a moral resolution too.

It was done in accordance with the Constitution and is an acceptable practice in democratic governance, say some.Perhaps it is time every side in the political arena, along with the watching Joe and Jane, considered the following thought: Politicians/leaders oftentimes say they do this or do that because they have the people’s mandate. Fair enough.

In fact, I daresay it becomes irrelevant. If changes can occur without free and fair elections — and this has happened in other jurisdictions too — the mandate loses its power. It becomes a fiction.We could, however, salvage the dismal situation by amending the Constitution to have elections at shorter intervals. Say, once every two or three years.

For the philosopher Voltaire himself, “[I]f only a government is enlightened, he did not care how powerful it was”.
