President Bola Tinubu has been advised by a senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mike Ozekhoke to get Nigerian a person centred constitution
Mr Mike Ozekhoke is a human rights lawyer and a patriot. He disclosed this solution during an interview.
He was asked a question but the interviewers on whether the President has political will and he answered thus;“Well, he should have the political will because these problems will not go away until we tackle it headlong”.
He was also asked whether a new constitution is an antidote to poverty, insecurity, and other challenges that Nigerians face, Ozekhome said, “It is. The killings you are seeing, the poverty, the corruption, they are all symptoms of a larger problem which is the basis of what we are talking about. When you solve it, other things will be in place.”
Mr Ozekhome was of the opinion that the 1999 Constitution was military-imposed, and is not subject to any form of referendum. He said that what Nigerians need is indigenous and people-centric constitution to drive the country’s “journey of no destination”.
According to him, he says Nigeria is lacking nationhood. “Nigeria is a country still yearning for nationhood. We are not united,” he said.
