National Assembly to Debate and Vote on 44 Constitution Review Bills in Nigeria
The National Assembly in Nigeria is set to deliberate and vote on 44 Constitution Review Bills, addressing a wide range of reforms such as electoral processes, judiciary restructuring, and local government autonomy. The bills aim to strengthen traditional institutions, fiscal federalism, citizenship, and indigenous rights.
This marks a significant effort towards comprehensive restructuring of the country's political and administrative framework, with the last amendment to the 1999 Constitution signed into law by former President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023. The process involves public hearings and engagement with stakeholders to gather input for proposed amendments, with Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu overseeing the Constitutional Review Committee's activities.
