The Nigerian Senate has recommended that Senator Natasha
Akpoti-Uduaghan, representing Kogi Central Senatorial District, issue a written
apology over her allegations against Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
This was disclosed on Thursday during plenary by the
Chairman of the Senate Committee on Ethics, Code of Conduct, and Public
Petitions, Senator Neda Imasuen (LP, Edo South).
The Senate also dismissed Akpoti-Uduaghan’s claims that
Akpabio had been silencing her voice in the chamber, describing the allegations
as frivolous.
Other recommendations by the Senate include:
·
A six-month suspension from all legislative
activities, effective March 6, 2025.
·
Immediate surrender of all Senate properties in
her possession.
A directive that she must not be present anywhere near the
legislative chamber during the suspension period. And others.
This development follows a heated confrontation in the
Senate last Thursday when Akpoti-Uduaghan protested the reassignment of her
seat by Akpabio.
She arrived at the session to find her nameplate removed and
her seat reassigned, prompting her to demand an explanation for what she viewed
as an unjustified move.
