Section 38 of the 1999 Constitution (as amended) provides that:
“Every person shall be entitled to freedom of thought, conscience and religion, including the freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom (either alone or in community with others, and in public or in private) to manifest and propagate his religion or belief in worship, teaching, practice and observance.”
If this section is critically and conscientiously followed, there shall be no conflict as to religion.
Therefore, this paper critically examines the limitation, challenges, and prospects of this section as relates to freedom of religion.
