This piece, therefore, stands the risk of being over taken by events and thus upgraded to an academic discourse, always but unfairly treated as a sterile argument. I hope not.
Having said that, let me offer a caveat. My naivety here is for a good cause, the cause of of having the best of both worlds, to wit, the need to balance the composition of a government with party loyalists and supporters and men and women drawn from even opposition parties who have demonstrated their capacity in their chosen fields to help make the government of the day tick.
A federal cabinet is composed of men and women whose names were given to the president for appointment as ministers. Under the current system, a state governor submits three names from which, arguably, the president is free to make his choice. That of course, is the fiction. The fact is that a governor lists the names in order of his preference and one that the president simply accepts.
