An attempt by the senate Minority leader, Godswill Akpabio, to second the motion was also shouted down.

When the senate president decided to put the motion before the house in a form of question, asking if the bill should be discussed or not, PDP senators shouted "Aye" in favor of it while the majority in the house, APC, shouted No.
