The House of Representatives Committee on Constitution Review will today (Monday) meet with the leadership of registered political parties in the ongoing move to amend the 1999 Constitution.
Chaired by the Deputy Speaker of the House, Benjamin Kalu, the committee has identified key areas of possible amendments to the nation’s extant laws, including state police, power revolution, local government autonomy and special seats for women, among others.
The committee, a few weeks ago, toured the six geopolitical zones, collating stakeholders’ input on the constitution review process and is expected to submit a final draft to the National Assembly in December 2025 for adoption.
