Abstract: Many constitutions across the world contains un-amendable provisions, in order, inter alia, to protect the basic characteristics of the constitutional principles seeming as to be at risk of repealed by the parliaments. From the same aspect, this article meant to examine un-amendable provisions stipulated in the Constitution of Zanzibar, 1984. In doing so, the article reviews the origins, formation and substance of un-amendable provisions. To some extent, un-amendable provisions drawn in the 1984 Constitution, executes certain functions and imitate the significant values of the constitutional principles. In spite of these limitations being used as a protector of genetic codes, but the constitutional drafters were keen enough to find a way not to diminish the power of the people to modify their way of life through un-amendable provisions.
