is Nigerian constitution rigid
1 answer
Overall, the Nigerian constitution is considered rigid as it requires a complex and time-consuming amendment process. Any proposed amendments must be approved by two-thirds majority of the National Assembly and two-thirds of the state houses of assembly. This makes it difficult for significant changes to be made quickly or easily to the constitution. However, certain provisions of the constitution, such as the fundamental human rights, are considered flexible and can be amended through a simpler process.
