Contractors protested at the Nigerian National Assembly over unpaid debts, leading to heavy traffic disruptions. The contractors demanded the release of funds for completed federal projects.

The House of Representatives initially suspended plenary due to the protest but later decided to resume sessions to address the payment issues. The contractors vowed to continue protesting until December 31 if the government fails to release payments.

The Clerk, Dr. Yahaya Danzaria, announced the resumption of plenary to address the contractors' grievances.
