On the second day of South South Zonal hearing on the amendment of the Nigerian Constitution in Ikot Ekpene, Akwa Ibom state, members of senate committee were no where to be found.
Due to their inability to present their memorandum before the senate committee, agitators for the creation of Obolo state staged a peaceful protest outside the venue.
Action Aid, NLC and NULGE also raised strong points on electoral reforms and labour matters.
