2023: Drop amendments, give Nigerians new constitution- Southern, Middle Belt Leaders

The Southern and Middle Belt Leaders’ Forum, SMBLF, yesterday insisted that what the country needs urgently is a new constitution and not an amendment of the current one.

The Forum described the current attempt to amend the 1999 Constitution by the National Assembly as fraudulent.

The leader also warned that failure to restructure the country might lead to Nigeria’s disintegration.

The SMBLF, which comprises the Pan Niger Delta Forum, PANDEF; the pan-Yoruba socio-political organization, Afenifere, Ohanaeze Ndigbo and the Middle Belt Forum met at the Ladi Kwali Hall of Sheraton Hotels and Towers in Abuja.

Notable leaders present were Chief Edwin Clark, (Leader), Chief Ayo Adebanjo (Afenifere leader), Professor George Obiozor (Ohanaeze Ndigbo leader) and Dr. Bitrus Pogu (Middle Belt Forum leader).
