Anglican Primate Calls for New Constitution to Ensure Justice and Equity
Most Reverend Henry Ndukuba, Primate of the Anglican Communion

The Primate of the Anglican Communion, Most Reverend Henry Ndukuba, has called for the abolition of Nigeria’s current Constitution and the drafting of a new one that ensures justice and equity. Speaking at the Standing Committee Meeting of the Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion, in Port Harcourt, he stressed that a citizen-driven Constitution is crucial to addressing the country’s challenges.  

Ndukuba condemned the rising insecurity across Nigeria, urging authorities to take decisive action to restore peace. He attributed many of the crimes to foreign mercenaries allegedly hired by politicians and called for a National Reconciliation Commission to address deep-seated divisions. He further urged President Bola Tinubu to prioritise national unity and leave a lasting legacy.
