Some House of Representatives members protested against alleged discrimination in allocation of seats and offices for the members.
The lawmakers, numbering about 100 who openly protested against the perceived tendencies, said the ugly trend was capable of causing setback on legislative activities.
The House Committee on Welfare, chaired by Olawale Raji was saddled with the responsibility of allocation of seats for members.
The protesting lawmakers were mostly first timers, who described the seats allocated to them at one of the temporary chambers as unconducive as they were allocated seats in the third floor.
Responding to the development, the Speaker of the House, Tajudeen Abbas, called for calm, while assuring that the main Chamber which is currently undergoing renovation, would be completed before the House resume from recess.
