Nwoko described the existing constitution as a “working document” that continues to guide governance in the country while featuring on National Television.

According to him, “Personally, I do not subscribe to the idea that we should throw away the current constitution and create an entirely new one.


“It’s a workable document, and it has been guiding what we are doing in Nigeria so far.”

The lawmaker maintained that while the constitution is not perfect, it can be improved through targeted amendments rather than a complete overhaul.

He added that, “There cannot be any perfect constitution anywhere in the world.

Nwoko’s remarks come amid renewed calls from civil society groups and some political leaders advocating for a new constitution as a means of addressing structural and governance challenges in the country.
