Emeka Anyaoku, the former secretary-general of the Commonwealth has said that Nigeria as a country cannot do well with the 1999 Constitution as amended.
The elder statesman said it is imperative for Nigeria to do away with the constitution and fashion out ways to develop using a new one. His words, “To those who think that the trouble with Nigeria today is the political leadership, I would say that as long as we have the 1999 Constitution as our grundnorm, not even Angel Gabriel or Malaikah Jibrin as leaders can successfully tackle the divisiveness, the underperforming economy with the resultant poverty, the insecurity, the humongous corruption, and the other major challenges currently facing Nigeria.
