Senate Committee Recommends Six-Month Suspension for Senator Natasha 

The Senate Committee on Public Conduct, Ethics, Privileges, and Public Petitions has recommended a six-month suspension for Kogi Central Senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.

Presenting the committee’s report at Thursday’s plenary, Chairman Senator Neda Imasuen stated that Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan was found guilty of all allegations against her, having failed to appear before the committee for a review of her conduct.

Senators are currently debating the report, with possible amendments to the committee’s recommendations before a final decision is adopted.

Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan had been referred to the committee over alleged misconduct following a confrontation with Senate President Godswill Akpabio regarding seating arrangements in the chamber.

The situation escalated when she later accused Senator Akpabio of sexual harassment and abuse of office, among other allegations.
