Anyaoku advocates a new constitution to address Nigeria’s challenges

A former Secretary-General of the Commonwealth, Emeka Anyaoku, said on Friday Nigeria was in dire need of a new constitution to address its numerous challenges.

Anyaoku, who made the call in his 2023 Convocation Lecture at the Afe Babalola University in Ado Ekiti, Ekiti State, said a new constitution was the way forward for Nigeria to check the ongoing deterioration of the situation in the country.

He argued that the country’s diversity was properly managed by the leaders in its early years of independence.
