Women groups from the six states of the Niger Delta region has warned the Senator representing Kogi Central Senatorial district of Kogi State, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan to stop disgracing Womanhood by her alleged gutter attitude purportedly displayed during plenary on Thursday.
According to the Women groups, though many accepted it during the time of former Kogi Governor, Yahaya Bello, the women of the Niger Delta will not accept the open display of disrespectful attitude towards their own, the Senate President,Godswill Akpabio.
The Women group, under the aegis of Niger Delta Mothers for Good Governance, led by Comrade Alice Omo-Ovie, the open show of shame by Senator Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan will not be accepted and she should tender unreserved apology to our father and leader, senator Akpabio.
On the frivolous allegations of sexual harassment level against the Senate President, Senator Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has once again shown signs of admittance of guilt on her gross misconduct on the floor of the house,” this is defeatist ploy by a disgraceful senator to bring to disrepute Senator Godswill Akpabio sterling reputation as a senator.”
” We, the women of the region, found the allegations as frivolous, a lie and a ploy by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan to sway the Senate Committee from investigating reasons for a shameful display and avoid disciplinary measures.”
” As a so called Married woman and a mother of Eight Children from different men, why didn’t she report such frivolous allegations before now.? It is a deliberate campaign of calnumy against our Senate President.”
Also speaking, President Niger Delta Women for Tinubu, Mrs Faith Adaga Timiseite, cautioned Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan from making statements and claims that will further rubbish her as a Senator of the Federal republic.
” Senator Godswill Akpabio has shown charismatic leadership and has added to his antecedents as a leader from the Niger Delta region, Natasha and her sponsors should retrace their steps and ask her to apologise and allow the matter rest. If the investigative digging starts, images will be shattered and marriages may become a mirage.”
Another politician, Hon. Oweifie Ayo,has condemned the open display of disgraceful attitude on the floor of the house and called on members of his constituency to call her to order to avoid a disgraceful ending in the National Assembly.
