That meeting had earlier been moved from Wednesday to Thursday because of the Workers Day celebration.
Even though it was earlier scheduled to commence at 11 a.m, the absence of the Vice President who was out of Abuja for an undisclosed engagement that day, caused it to be rescheduled for 4 p.m.
The Vice President arrived at about 4.30pm to preside over the meeting.
But after about three and half hours of deliberations, he suspended the meeting at 7.50pm to receive the group and was expected to return to the Council Chamber of the presidential at the end of his session with the Rights group.
The meeting lasted well into the night.
