The lawmaker representing Kogi Central, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, formally submitted a sexual harassment petition against Senate President Godswill Akpabio during Tuesday’s plenary session.
Akpoti-Uduaghan, who had previously made allegations of misconduct against Akpabio during an interview on Arise TV, took her claims to the Senate floor, citing Order 40 of the Senate rules.
“I had earlier spoken on Arise TV about issues concerning sexual harassment by the Senate President, and I have now decided to formally present it as a petition before this chamber,” she stated.
