Emeka Anyaoku made this known while addressing the Nigerian Institute of International Affairs in Lagos during the launch of “The Noble Academic and Patriot: A Biography of Emeritus Professor Akinjide Osuntokun.”
The former Secretary-General urged President Bola Tinubu and his administration to consider constitutional reform.
