Olanipekun SAN: Nigeria’s 1999 Constitution Is Unamendable – Call for Regional Referendums

In a recent video, Chief Wole Olanipekun SAN argues that Nigeria’s 1999 Constitution is fundamentally flawed. He points out that the Preamble’s “We the People” clause is fake because Nigerians never drafted or ratified the document. He warns that if the Preamble cannot be amended, the whole constitution lacks legitimacy. He also highlights that Nigeria operates as a unitary state under a false federation since no region has its own constitution. Based on these concerns, NINAS proposes a two-stage transition. Stage one would hold regional referendums to let each area reaffirm or opt out of the union. Stage two would define a new agreement’s terms based on those results. Please share widely.
