The 36 state governors, along with the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives and Chairman of the Committee on the Review of the Constitution, Benjamin Kalu, have pledged to strengthen the 1999 Constitution.
The pledge came after a meeting between the governors and Kalu’s Committee in Abuja early this morning.
Addressing press, Kaduna State Governor, Senator Uba Sani disclosed that the forum led by Kwara State Governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq discussed other pressing matters as well, including utilising data and technology to improve education management systems during its meeting with the Minister of Education, Tunji Alausa.
In his own address, the Deputy Speaker expressed hope that with an established liaison desk between the National Assembly and the NGF, it will be easier for the Houses of Assembly to fulfill their responsibilities regarding the constitutional provisions and their role in voting on them.
