Addressing journalists shortly after the police stopped the protesters, Ezekwesili said the presidency had been notified of its procession to the villa gate, where the citizen movement was to deliver a message to the government.
She expressed surprise that the group was stopped, saying BBOG would deliver its message on the road notwithstanding the barricade.
The campaigners are at present holding a commemorative session on the busy secretariat road, causing traffic congestion.
The protesters had set out from the Unity Fountain in Abuja around 10:30am, but met a wall of police officers on the road leading to the villa.
