The National Assembly has again allocated N850m for Constitution Amendment in the 2023 Budget.
Speaking on the yearly allocation of funds to the National Assembly, the Executive Director of the Civil Society Legislative Advocacy Centre, Auwal Rafsanjani, believes the project has failed, saying the 10th Assembly, which begins in June 2023, will have to start all over again.
“It is unfair and a total waste of public funds that all the key issues that affect Nigerians like indigenisation, discrimination, land ownership, and some other laws are not captured in the Amendment.”
