Despite the confusion, lawmakers were reportedly seen arriving at the House of Representatives chamber on Wednesday morning, the venue of the joint sitting.

According to Vanguard, security is top-notch, as staff on duty are screened before being allowed into the complex. The complex also has a new look, with a welcoming banner strategically placed at the entrance to the White House, where the two chambers are located. Banners highlighting past and present leaders of the two chambers are also conspicuously displayed.
