Speaking during the visit, Okowa pointed out that since there is no provision to rewrite the constitution, a clause should be added during the review process.

“Is it possible to have a brand new constitution when there is one existing? As the constitution is at the moment, there is no provision to allow that,” he said.

“But I believe that if we have a deep thought and look at section 9 of the constitution, it will be possible to add a clause, and when that clause must have been approved and has become law, it will now be possible under such a condition for the national assembly to rewrite an entire constitution which will come into effect after all the processes have been done.”
