James Enu, Member of Parliament (MP) for Tema West, has described President John Dramani Mahama's inauguration of a constitutional review committee as a necessary step to ensure that Ghana's constitution reflects the country's current needs and challenges.
President John Dramani Mahama, on January 30, inaugurated an eight-member Constitutional Review Committee to identify and address gaps and challenges in the implementation of previous constitutional review work done by the 2010 Committee.
Enu, who is also a lawyer, said the 1992 Constitution, which had been in effect for almost 33 years, had not undergone any major review.
He emphasized the importance of amending certain provisions of the constitution to promote good governance, strengthen democracy, and address legal and political concerns that have emerged over the years. "There are a few provisions in the constitution that have come under discussion in terms of how we can review them to fit our current circumstances.
