Senate Slams Six Months Suspension On Senator Natasha
The Senate has slammed six months suspension on Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan amid the sexual harassment allegation she leveled against the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio.
Her suspension was recommended by the Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges, and Public Petitions.
During the period of the suspension, the committee stated that her salary and security details will be withdrawn.
The committee also recommended that Senator Natasha should not be seen anywhere around the National Assembly during her suspension period.
Akpoti-Uduaghan’s suspension stems from a controversy surrounding her sexual harassment allegation against Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
The dispute began when Akpoti-Uduaghan, representing Kogi Central, formally accused Akpabio of misconduct, submitting a petition before the Senate.
