    Akapbio punishing me because I refused to sleep with him – Senator Natasha

    Published on

     

    Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (PDP, Kogi Central) has accused Senate President Godswill Akpabio of sexual harassment.

    The lawmaker who has dominated the headlines over her spat with the senate president made the claim on ARISE TV, on Friday.

    It has been reported how the Kogi Senator had a heated argument with Akpabio after discovering that her seat was changed without her consent.

    She was subsequently referred to the Committee on Ethics, Privileges, and Public Petitions, for disciplinary review.

    Chaired by Senator Neda Imaseun (LP, Edo South), the committee was given two weeks to report back on its findings.

    This followed a voice vote after lawmakers revisited the controversy surrounding the issue, with lawmakers underpinning the need to uphold parliamentary rules and decorum.

    Akpoti-Uduaghan had filed a N100.3 billion fundamental human rights suit against Akpabio.

    In her interview on Friday, the lawmaker said she had evidence against Akpabio, stating that her husband is also a witness.
