The Constitution of a country is the most supreme law of the land which
defines in a social and political contract between
the citizen and state; the procedure and scope for, and limits of
lawful governance as well as the fundamental rights and freedoms of citizens.
Veritably, such a law would have to be the foundation on which every other law
pursuant to the governance of the state, would be coded. A constitution
therefore is not merely a legal document in the nature
of ordinary legislation, but a socio-political construct within which
individuals can live full lives and on which government institutions can be
fashioned. In summary, a constitution is the code through
which the functions of government are realized.
