National Conference resumes, adjourns immediately

After three weeks’ break, the National Conference, on Monday, resumed proceedings for delegates to conclude their work and approve the final report of the Conference, Channels Television reported.
According to the report, the delegates did not sit for long as the Secretary of the Conference announced that the conference would adjourn till Wednesday August 13 , to allow delegates study the draft report they had received.
In what many Nigerians expected would be the final lap of the national assignment, the delegates had arrived, signed in and immediately gone into the conference hall with copies of the draft reports, as they waited for the Conference Chairman to arrive.
Instead, it was the Conference Secretary, Dr. Valerie-Janette Azinge, who arrived to announce the adjournment and outlined some of the documents the delegates would received and were expected to consider before the resumption on Wednesday.
The Conference rose immediately after some of the delegates spoke on the development.
While some delegates agreed with the position, given the size of the reports they have to consider, some were of the opinion that it would have been better for the Conference to resume on Monday, claiming that the two days given by the secretariat was too short.
Nevertheless, the decision for the National Conference to resume on Wednesday stood.
