MPs urge charter change
The report reviewed Egyptian lawmakers’ attempts to amend the constitution, beginning with a 1980 proposal by Faida Kamel and Nawal Amer to amend Article 77 to allow the president to be re-elected for an unlimited number of terms. The proposal was approved as part of constitutional amendments in a referendum held on May 22 that year. In 2017, Ismail Nasr El-Din proposed extending the presidential term from four years to six—a change later adopted in the 2019 amendments. Mustafa Bakri has recently revived the issue, calling for a new constitution to be drafted or the current one amended to give President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi the opportunity to see his project through. He stressed that any amendment should follow constitutional and legal procedures. Under the 2014 Constitution, the current presidential term ends in 2030.
