Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has made shocking allegations against Senate President Godswill Akpabio, accusing him of sexual harassment. In an interview on ARISE TV, Akpoti-Uduaghan claimed that Akpabio made unwanted advances towards her, and when she rejected him, he retaliated by hindering her legislative efforts
The dispute between the two lawmakers began when Akpoti-Uduaghan discovered that her Senate seat had been changed without her consent, leading to a heated exchange. As a result, she was referred to the Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges, and Public Petitions for disciplinary review
Akpoti-Uduaghan has also filed a N100.3 billion fundamental human rights lawsuit against Akpabio, insisting that she has evidence to support her claims. Her husband is also a witness to the alleged harassment
The Senate Committee, chaired by Senator Neda Imaseun, has been given two weeks to present its findings. The committee's investigation is crucial in determining the outcome of this case
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has weighed in on the issue, calling for a thorough and transparent investigation into the allegations. He emphasized the importance of accountability and justice in this matter
Akpabio's wife, Unoma Akpabio, has denied the allegations, describing them as false and self-serving. However, Akpoti-Uduaghan's accusations have sparked widespread outrage, with many demanding a response from the Senate President
