The Suspended Kogi Central Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has publicly alleged on Sky News that she endured over a year of sexual advances from Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
In the interview with British television station, Sky News, she maintained that her suspension was a direct result of her speaking out against Akpabio’s alleged sexual harassment, rather than the “gross misconduct” cited by the Senate.
She claimed Akpabio repeatedly told her she needed to “please him” to access the benefits of her senatorial position.
She said, “I made an allegation of sexual harassment against the President of the Nigerian Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio, on March 5, 2025, and the very next day, I was suspended for six months. I believe my suspension is illegal, unjust, and just a way of silencing me.
“I experienced sexual harassment over the past year in the hands of the Senate President, and this sexual harassment, because I refused to yield to his demands, turned into malice whereby my rights and privileges as a senator were deprived.
