As the controversy of alleged sexual harassment involving Senate President Godswill Akpabio and Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, rages, Every Woman Hope Centre (EWHC) has called on relevant authorities to ensure thorough and transparent investigation in the best interest of democracy in the country.
Speaking on the issue at a press briefing on Monday in Abuja, the Founder/Executive Director of EWHC, an NGO with special interest on biodiversity, women and children, Mrs. Edel-Quinn Agbaegbu said instead of victimizing Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, she should be rather be respected for her boldness against the culture of silence, intimidation and victim-shaming which perpetrates an environment where victims are silenced and perpetrators emboldened.
