Senate’s intervention on constituon review exercise in futility —Afenifere

nigerian-constitutionPan-Yoruba sociopolitical group, Afenifere, on Wednesday, reacted to the constitution review exercise being carried out by the Senate, describing it as an exercise in futility.

The group gave the stand on Wednesday through its national publicity secretary, Mr Yinka Odumakin, insisting that the Senate, rather than focusing on the critical issues of federalism as a way of restructuring the country, had decided to ignore such only to major in minors.

Afenifere said what the Senate had done confirmed the fears that nationhood could not be addressed through the National Assembly as currently constituted, adding that the federal lawmakers had only succeeded in putting Nigeria on the road to auto-restruturing.
