The Senate President, Godswill Akpabio on
Saturday said the Senator representing Kogi
Central, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, who was
suspended by the Senate for six months,
traumatised him and others.
Akpabio had come under heavy criticism
following the sanction handed out to the
lawmaker.
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and the
Labour Party presidential candidate in the
2023 election, Peter Obi, cautioned the Senate
against making the political atmosphere toxic
for women.
Major opposition parties in the country have
also expressed outrage over the manner in
which the complaint was handled.
But Akpabio maintained his innocence, saying
none of what she alleged was true.

Speaking at an event to commemorate
International Women’s Day, Akpabio raised
concerns that he was merely her latest victim,
saying previous allegations by Natasha had
turned out to be false.
He said, ‘’It is only yesterday that I realised
that what we are talking about only happened
when there was a change of seat.

That is
when hell was let loose, and all sorts of
allegations came up, only after the change of
seat and change of committee, which my
Senators know to happen from time to time.
“This is said to have happened on December
8, a day before my birthday, which was
celebrated in the Stadium in 2023. So from
the 8th of December 2023, I never heard, my
wife never heard, no Nigerian ever heard, even
the husband never heard any issue of sexual
harassment until her committee was changed
and then her seat was changed.

“Have you ever wondered about the trauma
caused by that same woman on the other
people she has accused in the past? None
has been proven so far. Do you even wonder
about the trauma this caused to the 10th
Senate and the image of the Senate with all
these useless allegations? I have refrained
myself from making a statement.
“
Look at these beautiful women. They have
come across me so many times. Have I ever
harassed any one of you? Or is the person
thinking that you are not beautiful?”
