Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rep Femi Gbajabimila has come out to say that the nation is currently battling to survive amid its many problems.

He revealed this recently in his remarks at the inauguration of the House of Representatives Special Adhoc Committee on the review of the 1999 constitution (as amended).

According to him, the recent global developments have systemic weaknesses in our nation, and the slow progress we are making is now obvious.

He added that Nigeria is starting its constitutional review process at a good time because most of our problems are our own making.

His words, “When you ask me what the state of our nation is, the honest answer is this: we are in a fight for the very survival of our country and the continuation of the Nigerian project.

“Recent global developments have exposed all our systemic weaknesses so that we can no longer pretend to ourselves that things are on an even keel and slow progress is enough to get us to where we ought to be yet are still so far away from”.

“We are commencing this constitutional review process at a time of great and ongoing upheaval in our country. New challenges emerge daily from every corner.

“Some of these challenges are of our own making, and others, we could not have foreseen or been prepared for. Whichever may be the case, the Nigerian people look up to us as a government to proffer solutions that work, to do the heavy lifting of writing a new constitution, one better suited to our current aspirations and reflect our vision of the future”.

“The answer to many of our development questions lies in the pages of a new Nigerian constitution. This 9th House of Representatives has since committed to the cause of reform. Our commitment must neither waver nor wane on the matter of thoughtful and fair overhaul of our nation’s constitution.

“The reality of our current circumstances and the now certain knowledge that only us can save ourselves imposes on us an obligation to act with greater determination and all the urgency this moment calls for”.
