 The House of Representatives says it will commence work assiduously on various provisions of the 1999 Constitution-required review and amendments. Chairman of the Committee and Deputy Speaker of the House, Benjamin Kalu, stated these on Wednesday during a pre-inauguration meeting on Wednesday at the National Assembly Abuja. The National Assembly since 2010 has successfully amended and made landmark changes to the Constitution since it was handed over to Nigeria in 1999 by the military regime of General Abdul Salam Abu Bakr. Some of the significant amendments successfully made by the various efforts include judicial reforms, electoral reforms, aid reduction allowing young persons to be appointed into the Independent National Electoral Commission as well as many other landmark amendments and reviews. So far, 40 bills are at various stages of consideration relating to the alterations of the Constitution, but some of the envisaged challenges with the alterations are insecurity and some economic difficulties. However, the Committee Chairman says he will ensure mass participation of the Nigerian people, transparency and credibility during the exercise in the interest of the public. We are well aware of our present challenging circumstances as its nation between challenge of insecurity and economic difficulties could tamper with the confidence of our citizens. It is here for our Constitutional responsibility to respond to the 40 bills so far proposed and also attend to the duty of governments to ensure the security and welfare of the citizens as provided by the Constitution. As the Constitution Review Committee prepares for its inauguration on February 26, 2024, the expectations are that the alterations expected to be made will meet the yearnings and aspirations of Nigerians. The Committee is fully aware of the consigns of Nigerians on the need to finalize and conclude discussions around Nigeria's Constitution. I would like to state, however, that the nature of Nigeria's Constitution and the history around how it was made and handed over to a new City Land Government in 1999 makes it imperative for us to continually revisit the several provisions of the Constitution and work towards accomplishing consensus on our standing Constitutional debates.
