The PIB Conference Report which was earlier listed for presentation and consideration was, however, stepped down after the House resumed plenary at the end of an executive session.
The rowdiness was triggered by some lawmakers who protested the alleged reduction in the approved percentage accruing to oil host communities.
The lower chamber had earlier voted 5 percent for host communities in the PIB earlier passed while the Senate passed 3 percent.
A PDP member, Chinyere Igwe, reportedly created a scene on the floor of the House when he started protesting and shouting on top of his voice over the alleged reduction of the percentage for host communities from 5% to 3% after the conference committee of the two chambers.
The rowdy session began prior to the arrival of the Speaker, Femi Gbajabiamila.
Even after the arrival of the Speaker, the rowdy session persisted forcing the House to go for an executive session.
