The women, under the aegis of Nigerian Women Groups, had last week protested against the action of the lawmakers.
They had promised to return if the decision was not reversed.
They made good their promise as they returned in larger numbers, on Tuesday, promising to continue the protest until the lawmakers bowed 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.
