The House of Representatives Committee on Constitution Review has outlined a comprehensive plan to engage key stakeholders in the ongoing amendment of Nigeria’s 1999 Constitution. The committee, led by Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu, aims to ensure transparency and inclusivity in the review process.
A crucial meeting with the Nigerian Governors Forum is scheduled for July 23, 2025, where the committee will present bills currently under consideration and seek the governors’ support for passage. Additionally, a joint retreat with Senate Constitution Review members and Speakers of the 36 State Houses of Assembly will be held from September 25 to 28, 2025, to harmonize bills and ensure consistency across the country.
