The Senate has suspended Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, representing Kogi Central, for six months, effective March 6, 2025, over alleged misconduct and violation of the Senate rules (2023 as amended).
According to LEADERSHIP, the controversy leading to her suspension dates back to February, when a dispute over seating arrangements in the Senate chamber escalated into a confrontation between Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan and Senate President Godswill Akpabio. The disagreement has since evolved into allegations of misconduct, sparking concerns over decorum within the legislative body.
However, Akpabio denied any wrongdoing, stating on Wednesday that he had "never harassed or disrespected any woman."
