Constitution

A constitution is a set of laws that outlines the governance of a state, classified into various types such as written or unwritten and flexible or rigid. Rural-urban migration leads to urban challenges like housing shortages, high crime rates, and health issues, while also impacting rural areas by reducing agricultural production and altering cultural values. Indirect rule was a British colonial strategy using local chiefs for governance, which resulted in low administrative costs but also led to cultural assimilation and disregard for ethnic groupings.
