merits
1. The President’s fixed term of office enables him to give his full time to the pursuit of state duties during his tenure, rather than dividing his time between State duties and politics.
2. The clear separation of powers among the three organs of government helps to prevent the misuse of state power.
3. Although there are majority and minority parties in the legislature, the absence of an official opposition party makes everyone work together for greater development.
4. The President’s power to discipline any erring member of his government, especially the ministers, makes for an effective running of the executive arm of government.
Demerits of the Presidential System of government
1. The Presidential System is very expensive to run, in terms of finance and personnel required for the separate executive and legislative arms of government.
2. Since the President is not responsible to Parliament, an ambitious President may become autocratic because of the enormous executive powers at his disposal.
3. The fixed term of office of the President may make him become very unresponsive to public opinion.
4. The separation of the executive and legislative arms of government often results in government crises whenever both arms disagree with each other, especially on such issues as the budget.
