The House of Representatives will on Wednesday, December 3, 2025, commence plenary debates on proposed amendments to the 1999 Constitution as part of the ongoing constitutional review process.

According to the legislative timetable released by the House leadership, the debate phase will run for several days, during which lawmakers are expected to consider recommendations submitted by the Constitution Review Committee, chaired by the Deputy Speaker.

The issues slated for consideration include governance reforms, devolution of powers, judicial restructuring, electoral reforms, and amendments related to local government administration. Lawmakers will also review proposals touching on revenue allocation, citizenship, and matters affecting gender inclusion and political participation.

Following the debate period, the House will proceed to the voting stage on Tuesday, December 9, 2025. Each amendment requires the support of at least two-thirds of members to scale through, after which the proposals will be transmitted to the state Houses of Assembly for concurrence, as mandated by the Constitution.

The upcoming sessions are expected to attract significant public interest as the National Assembly moves into a decisive stage of one of the most consequential constitutional reform exercises in recent years.
