Hon. Benjamin Kalu, demanded urgent constitutional and electoral changes to strengthen governance and restore public confidence ahead of 2027.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Speaking at a consultative meeting organised by the House Committee on Constitution Review with political party leaders in Abuja, IPAC National Chairman, Dr. Yusuf Mamman Dantalle, commended the National Assembly for initiating broad-based conversations aimed at addressing persistent gaps in the nation\u2019s democratic framework.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">He described the review as critical to rebuilding trust in state institutions and correcting electoral flaws that have plagued past elections. According to Dantalle, as the umbrella body for all registered political parties and a key stakeholder in leadership recruitment, IPAC is committed to championing reforms that would entrench transparency, credibility, and inclusivity in Nigeria\u2019s political process.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">He urged lawmakers to abolish State Independent Electoral Commissions (SIECs) and transfer the responsibility of conducting local government elections to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). Doing so, he argued, would ensure credible grassroots polls and strengthen governance from the bottom up.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Dantalle further proposed removing the President\u2019s power to appoint the INEC Chairman, national commissioners, and secretary. Instead, he advocated the creation of an Independent Appointment Committee comprising representatives of political parties, civil society, the National Judicial Council (NJC), and the National Assembly.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Other recommendations include restoring public funding for political parties to create a level playing field, establishing an Electoral Offences Commission to prosecute electoral crimes such as vote-buying and result manipulation, and reserving special legislative seats for women to boost female participation in governance. He also proposed allowing political parties to fill legislative vacancies caused by death or defection without expensive by-elections.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe ongoing constitution review is an opportunity to deliver a people\u2019s constitution that reflects our collective aspirations,\u201d Dantalle said, stressing that judicial independence and stronger human rights protections remain vital for sustaining democracy.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Senate President Godswill Akpabio also called for bold and comprehensive reforms to ensure that democracy not only survives but thrives. He described the constitution review process as \u201chistoric and transformative,\u201d insisting that Nigeria\u2019s supreme law must evolve to address contemporary challenges, including electoral credibility, justice, inclusion, and security.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Akpabio emphasised that credible elections and an impartial judiciary are indispensable to democracy, warning that public trust collapses when elections are flawed or justice delayed. He renewed calls for full local government autonomy, arguing that effective governance begins at the grassroots and that financial independence for local councils is key to improving service delivery and deepening federalism.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cNo democracy can flourish while excluding half of its population,\u201d he said, calling for greater women\u2019s representation in governance. Akpabio also backed the creation of state police as a pragmatic solution to Nigeria\u2019s security challenges, but cautioned that such a system must operate within human rights safeguards.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Reaffirming the National Assembly\u2019s commitment to work with the executive and stakeholders, he vowed that lawmakers would pass legislation to strengthen institutions and enhance accountability. \u201cThe Constitution is not a piece of paper; it is the promise of a people,\u201d he declared. \u201cIf we remain true to these ideals, future generations will say of us: here were leaders who did not merely speak of change but made it happen.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Kalu: Most Inclusive Constitution Review in History<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Deputy Speaker and Chairman of the Constitution Review Committee, Rt. Hon. Benjamin Kalu, described the ongoing review as the most inclusive in Nigeria\u2019s history. Twenty-six years after the 1999 Constitution came into effect, he said it was imperative to assess whether it still meets present-day realities.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Kalu noted that the committee had held extensive consultations with legal experts, civil society organisations, traditional rulers, and other stakeholders, including zonal public hearings. He emphasised the central role of political parties in the process, given their influence in recruiting candidates, mobilising voters, and shaping policies.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Highlighting key proposals, including guaranteed women\u2019s representation, local government financial autonomy, and streamlined electoral processes, Kalu urged political parties to study the bills carefully and submit constructive inputs.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThese reforms go beyond partisan interests; they are essential to the future of our democracy,\u201d he said. \u201cWe must give women their rightful place, empower local governments to serve their people, make our elections credible, and our courts efficient. This is the task before us, and we cannot achieve it without your partnership.\u201d<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Tracy Moses With less than two years to the next general elections, calls for sweeping reforms to overhaul Nigeria\u2019s democratic system grew louder on Monday as the Inter-Party Advisory&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":122779,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-122778","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
