Abstract
The Constitution prescribes the rights and duties of the citizens, defines the powers of government, and sets the standards by which the people in a given nation and indeed the international community can judge the performance of government. Many Commonwealth African Countries, including Nigeria and Ghana, commenced their national lives as newly independent states with the Westminster model constitutions gifted to them by the British colonial masters , hence they were not initially deeply rooted in constitutionalism. These Westminster model constitutions that were exported to Commonwealth African countries like Nigeria and Ghana were not autochthonous and almost immediately after independence, they jettisoned these Constitutions and adopted new ones to reflect their sovereignty.
