13 members of the house who are on ground are said to be in support of a member, Daniel Ogazi, who is vying for the position of house leader, insisting that the postponement of the inauguration is illegal.
Meanwhile, 11 other members who are in support of the incumbent speaker, Ibrahim Balarebe were not on ground.
The State assembly complex was on Tuesday manned by security operatives who prevented visitors from gaining access into the premises.
