at the national confab continued to be an
issue, yesterday. Monday, the actual first
day of plenary recorded the worst day.
Food was in drastic short supply.
Members of the conference complained
and murmured among themselves.
Luckily, their murmuring reached the ears
of the secretariat that at the resumption
of plenary after the lunch hours, the
secretary of the conference, Dr. Valarie
Azinge formally addressed the issue.
"Honorable delegates, it has come to our
notice that most of you did not get food
to eat. We are very sorry about that. We
promise that it will not repeat itself
tomorrow."
Tuesday, the second day, was supposed
to witness adequate food supply but to
the chagrin of some delegates, the food
still didn't go round again.
A delegate who felt bad over the issue
couldn't hold it back to herself alone.
She told Vanguard that "the food didn't
get to me again."
But Wednesday proved a bit better for
the conference as food was said to have
gone round for the delegates.
Some members however attributed it to
the departure of many members who
opted to have their lunch outside the
conference venue.
Their departure was necessitated by the
early lunch break which the conference
observed due to a special session held by
the chairmen and some nominees to
brainstorm on the voting pattern.
