Question 37 NECO • 2025 • GOVERNMENT • objective

A constitutional amendment requires a two‑thirds majority in both the House of Representatives (300 members) and the Senate (100 members). If the amendment fails to achieve this in either house, it may still be passed in a joint session of both houses by a simple majority of the total members (i.e., more than half of 400). In a vote, 180 members of the House and 55 members of the Senate vote in favour, while the remaining members vote against. Does the amendment pass?

Answer Options

A. No, it fails because the joint session also requires a two‑thirds majority
Correct Answer B. Yes, it passes via the joint session
C. Yes, it passes because it met the two‑thirds requirement in the House
D. No, it fails because it did not achieve a two‑thirds majority in either house
Correct Answer
B
Correct Option:
Yes, it passes via the joint session
