Of course the reps will lose power if you do that

What kind of country is this!??

The north is behind all these evil cos it is ok with the way things are

It's finished

These people do not want Nigeria to develop, they are only pretending. Scrap the military 1999 constitution, you refused...okay, let us go back to the 1963 constitution so that we can reduce government spending and be regionally independent, they refused...anyone who believes in this people is dead while alive. the same will be showering 5k on youths during elections, giving them guns to intimidate people and snatch ballot. Shame on those who believe in these thieves.

No going back on Yoruba nation. Enough of monkey dey chop and baboon the work. We want to move forward and not backward anymore

The 1963 constitution allows for few individuals to be powerful and minority silenced. This is 2021 not 1963

How old is the American constitution? Nigerian leaders are dishonest, they talk as if the current constitution was written by God. It doesn't matter anyway because the country is going to break up, everything points to that direction.

The constitution wasn’t made by men with two heads. Nigeria won’t end well.

Grace001:
Of course they will rather hold on to the present constitution that is designed to render 80% Nigerians into abject poverty.

That’s how Nigeria system is designed through this present constitution to constantly put 80% Nigerians in abject poverty, no improvement.

So the politicians(oppressors) can continue to have their way.

Things like this make me believe that Nigerians are destine to suffering and smiling lifestyle.

Oppressors don’t want the oppressed to be free

Thsts why they want to review it not so? Bt just going back to an archaic constitution for purely sentimental reasons without seeing it's impracticable areas creates more chaos than solutions.

But the referenced 1999 Constitution is a constitution supervised by northern military dictators on armored tanks breathing on the necks of the drafters of the constitution.

The constitution never passed through a referendum.

So how on earth could a reasonable law maker insist that the 1999 constitution did not stipulate making of new constitution, therefore, new constitution can’t be made by the people of Nigeria; a new constitution different from the one made by soldiers?

This National Assembly is representing only the interest of Arewa hegemony over Nigeria.

Nigeria needs a new constitution prepared democratically by Nigerians, and subjected to a referendum before the constitution is applied by the country.

Yes, so the country will continue with no clear-cut direction, and the every day, every moment killings will continue with backwardness and little or no development! Anyway, "Who is it that says and it comes to pass when the Lord has not declared it?"(Lamentations 3:37). There is God!

bunch of �, what they're only concern with is there millions of naira salary

We need resource control n regional/State autonomy.

Stop all these nonsense

THEN THERE CANNOT BE 2023 elections. NOR basis for Nigeria's continuing existence...

Its a lie. They just dont want to do it. If the constitution only allows for amendments, then make an amendment to it with provisions for a new constitution. Once that passes, then create a new constitution.
What do we expect to get from a rubberstamp legislature anyways? The current constitution only favors them.

las las we use fight restructure the country or disintegrate simple....i can't shout!!!!

Useless bunch of self serving THIEVES!

I rep odua republic!

Useless contry Useless contry

Exactly my thought and prayers ever since

Thats what they all need

The country will be much better if this people are just nuked in that hall

Are the current crops of Politicians not so powerful Lols. Considering Nigeria population to the no of people ruling Nigeria, are 'few individuals' not so powerful while Nigerians are silenced?

This people are very stupid. They said the 1990 constitution has only room for ammendments not out right change. Is this not part of the reason people want it change.

These guys are just daft!!!!

Is man made for law or the law is made for man?! Who says a law or constitution cannot be discarded if need be?

Austineva2:
Rubbish! FG has pocketed these ones! What a country! If they can't then let Nigeria divide and let every region rule its self!

FG did not pocket them anything. All of them are the same - hustling for their pockets

Only in Nigeria Military Constitution is amended instead of discarding it. I only blame the citizens of this country for being docile.

so HOW did you get the 1999 constitution

my point exactly, going back to 1963 won't change nada

I'm not surprised though. The rogues stand for anything that favours them at the expense of the masses.

I'm not surprised

fk the review, if it does not make provision for another can't they put it.

Was the construction made by robots for robots?

InsideLove:
Ideally, the useless 1999 constitution should be totally ignored, disregarded and buried while something fresh is drafted. So are they saying even till the end of the world, 1999 constitution remains? It can only be amended? You guys are not ready to do the needful to calm down the prevailing tension in the country. When things get out of control, e go follow reach all of una, or at least your relatives.

if things gets out of hands, before they run out of the country they might meet their death.

frog12:
so HOW did you get the 1999 constitution

It fell from heaven, it was not made by humans.
