For a process that generated little or no enthusiasm from inception across the county, the current public interest in the amendment of the 1999 Constitution appears to be defeating the initial doubts that trailed the exercise.
.
This development is not unconnected with the display of uncommon determination by the National Assembly Assembly to give the nation a Peoples'  Constitution.
.
The House of Representatives is not leaving anything to chance in its efforts towards providing a more acceptable Constitution.
.
In this regard, the House  embarked on activities like working retreat and presentation of the collated results of the people's public sessions among others.
.
The Constitution review process in the House is under the guidance of the Deputy Speaker, Hon. Emeka Ihedioha, who is the adhoc committee chairman.
