Lagos lawyer and human rights activist, Mr. Femi Falana, has thrown his weight behind the calls for the country to return to the 1963 Constitution.
Falana argued that returning the country to the “1963 Constitution with necessary modifications” would put an end to the needless arguments over what kind of restructuring the country actually needs.
Falana, who described the 1963 Constitution as the only constitution “ever written and enacted by the Nigerian people through their representatives in the parliament,” said all other constitutions were enacted and imposed on Nigerians by either the colonial rulers or military dictators.
