BREAKING: How Akpabio made sexual advances on me – Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (Video)

Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has alleged that Senate President Godswill Akpabio made inappropriate advances toward her during a visit to his country home in Akwa Ibom.

Speaking in an interview with ARISE NEWS on Friday, the Kogi Central senator claimed that the incident occurred in December, a day before their birthdays.

“It all started the day before his birthday and my birthday because we are birthday mates. We were all in Akwa Ibom. At first, we were in his house at Ikot Ekpene. Then we all went to his house in Uyo, then he held my hands, walking around from room to room, he showed me the beautiful interiors,” she said.

> “He got to this particular sitting room and asked me if I liked his house. I said of course, Sir, every room is beautiful, beautiful taste. And he said, ‘Now you are a senator, I am going to create time for us to come create quality moments here. You will enjoy it.’ At that point, I just pulled away because I didn’t understand what he meant.”

Her claims come amid rising tensions in the Senate, following a heated session last Thursday, during which Akpabio ordered her removal from the chamber.

The confrontation stemmed from Senate Chief Whip Mohammed Monguno’s report that Akpoti-Uduaghan had refused to move to a newly assigned seat after the defection of two opposition senators to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Citing Senate Orders 24 and 6, Monguno argued that the Senate President had the authority to reassign seats and prevent a senator from contributing if not seated in their designated position.

In response, Akpoti-Uduaghan raised a protest under Order 10, claiming her privileges had been breached. However, Akpabio dismissed her objection and instructed the sergeants-at-arms to remove her from the chamber, escalating the standoff.
