The 2014 Constitutional Conference was a national conference convened by the Nigerian government to review and reform the country's constitution. The conference was attended by various stakeholders, including politicians, traditional rulers, religious leaders, and civil society organizations.
Some of the key issues discussed during the conference included:
- Devolution of power from the federal government to states and local governments
- Creation of more states and local governments
- Electoral reforms
- Independent candidacy in elections
- Removal of immunity clause for public officers
- Creation of a new revenue allocation formula
- Strengthening of the judiciary and the legislature
The conference produced a report that was submitted to the National Assembly, which is responsible for reviewing and amending the constitution. However, the report has yet to be implemented, and the country's constitution remains largely unchanged.
