Women under aegis of Nigerian Women Groups, have once again, stormed the National Assembly on Tuesday following the rejection of women-related bills by federal lawmakers.

Recall The New Diplomat, had reported on how the women protested against the action of the lawmakers, last week.

They had promised to return if the decision was not reversed.

They made good their promise as they returned in larger numbers,  on the 8th of March, promising to continue the protest until the lawmakers bows to their demands.

They said the marginalisation suffered by women must stop in the country.

They also demanded an apology from the lawmakers, vowing to get the names of those who voted against the bills and publish their names for the world to see.
