The Senate has suspended Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, representing Kogi Central, for six months following her dispute with Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
The decision was announced during Thursday’s plenary after the Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges, and Public Petitions recommended the suspension.
The committee’s report cited her allegations of sexual harassment against Akpabio as a key issue in the matter.
As part of the sanctions, the committee also advised that Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan’s salary and security details be withdrawn.
