Deputy Senate President and Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Review of the 1999 Constitution, Senator Ovie Omo Agege has advised those canvassing for a brand new Constitution for the nation to perish the thought.
Senator Omo Agege gave the admonition, on Thursday, in his opening remarks at the national public hearing of the Senate Committee on the Review of the Constitution held in Abuja.
Certain eminent Nigerians and socio-cultural organisations have dismissed the existing Constitution as unworkable and advocated for a new document.

We live in perilous times. Like the proverbial rudderless vessel, Nigeria is dangerously drifting into the precipice with the ship’s captain and crew members completely ignorant and helpless. Anybody still finding it difficult to come to terms with this analogy in relation to Nigeria is living in a fool’s paradise. Nigeria is at war: she is at war with herself, with her different ethnic nationalities, stakeholders and interest groups which make up the country. The bullets may not be flying and crisscrossing here and there quite alright but the bandits, Islamic terrorists, Fulani herdsmen murderers, anonymous gun-men, arsonists, burglars have a far-reaching inroad into the heart of the Nigerian state and is about capturing her in order to destroy her, reminiscent of Karl Maier’s This House Has Fallen or Robert D. Kaplan’s The Coming Anarchy.
