Politics › Re: ‘Why No Senator Openly Supports Natasha’ - Shehu Sani by Basicend: 10:26pm On Mar 06, 2025
JASONjnr:
I carefully went through her petition and it's a piece of trash....


She claimed her husband was there when Akpabio fondled her hands and he didn't see it .....

She claimed that he told her she should make her happy.... Apparently, Akpabio never asked her for sex.... Making someone happy could mean so many things.... Could mean, help me with contracts or Information.

Also, she visited him after he called her on a legislative matters after 7pm which she claimed took permission from her husband who was abroad at the time..... If Akpabio was sexually harassing her and with this exact boldness, she would have refused meeting him at odd hours. But she went regardless.

Again, all these things happened years back and she never spoke up. But just when she violated the house rules and was to be punished, she decided to bring sexual harassment as a defence tactics....

This is a cleverless move......

Women are manipulators....
She kept saying the same thing. No viable evidence.
I thought they said she is a lawyer. . No signs. All we have seen so far are emotional outbursts.

Is this the lot of stories she was promising to divulge to the whole world during her short media clip?

She needs to start behaving and thinking her age.
Politics › Re: Votes For The Suspension Of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan Was Unanimous by Basicend:
Gajagojo:
With respect
What you personally believe is NOT relevant

The issue in the public domain is with regard to her conduct in regard to the sitting arrangement
.It cannot be justified

It is impossible to see any rational connection between alleged sexual advances and what she did

Even if the sexual advance are proven it does NOT in any way mitigate her suspension

I do not see any connection between the sitting arrangement and Akpabio personally

They are UNRELATED issues and to date she has failed to show any connection

How is the move in seat harmful to her?
Why did she not move when asked to move
Is she saying that because Akpabio made sexual advances she now has immunity and impunity to act as she pleases? What exactly is her point?
She believes she is entitled to a special treatment from Senate president, since he is trying to make her believe that they are going to have a relationship / affair.

That's the way some ladies think.

What applies to others must not apply to her.

It is the continuous special treatments that wld eventually make her to give in to his requests. It's all woman's game.

She became furious and busted out coz the man kept treating her anyhow despite the underneath words flowing between them.

MrSundry:
Something is off here. Even the female senators did not vote against the suspension. shocked shocked

What happened to "women supporting women"
Look, I personally believe the Senate president made sexual advances towards her. Which should be justified.

It's the way she is going about it that makes everyone feel something is wrong with both individuals involved.

And in such cases, most people will just be indifferent.

Every sensible and morally decent tribe and region stand together to condemn Akpabio for his promiscuity..except those people who see nothing wrong in sleeping with a married woman(even if she is heavy).
Yes those emergency lovers of Akpabio
Yes, he (Akpabio) should be condemned by all if there is a justifiable evidence against him.

Nathasha's records doesn't speak well for her too, regarding this kind of petition.

Can she truthfully say that no other man in the Senate has toasted her apart from SP? That is even if the allegation if found truthful.

She has an underneath motive. So irritating.

Fasuyi never made such an allegation, what he said was that she falsely claimed Fayemi sold Ajaokuta.


It was Natasha the drama queen that responded by saying she never made any sexual harassment against Fayemi.

The text of what transpired is above, Fasuyi never mentioned sexual harassment.
You are very correct.

Fayemi and his PR or media team are very disappointing really.

Can't they just spear few minutes and read-up a piece of content comprehensively.

Lol.....are you aware that De la rue has been called out for providing false statistics in the comment you are supporting him for with your post below. Check on Internet shows he told blatant lies with the statistics...


Which then questions your own integrity and reasoning capacity too.

Not sure you have any idea about what he wrote but since you all APC e-warriors have been told to support each other here for the stipends to drop, you blindly just re-echoed his lies ans buffoonery too. grin
Bro, I didn't even check the guy's name of veracity of his view.

But my concern is that these so called analysts should leave the govt and let them do their job.

If they (govt) left the Naira at N3,500 per dollar, they will come out, blast and complain. Now govt is trying to instill some control into its value, yet they will come out and complain.

Lots of businesses are beginning to make some little profits again due to the FX stability. It's that not better for the citizens generally?

DeLaRue:
Every time the Reserve goes down, Nigerians scream that it is due to the CBN using dollars to subsidise the naira.

That is not true.

On a day to day basis, money comes into and leave the Reserve. That is how a Reserve operates.

Do people even know that the government's foreign obligations are met from the Reserve, and that includes loans taken by previous governments.

World Bank loans can be for 20 years or more. So Nigeria still has to be paying back loans taken as far back as Mr Obasanjo's , Jonathan and Buhari governments.

These are being paid back from the Reserve.

The recent purchase of 8000 tractors from Europe will have been paid for from the Reserve, like many other obligations.

The balance in the Reserve will go up and down from day to day, week to week etc It is normal.

When it goes down, it does not automatically mean the CBN used the money to support the naira!

Ah, Nigerians.
Don't mind the mischievous analyst.

They know what they are doing. Majority of them were deriving a lot of profit from naira devaluation.

The current CBN governor is getting it right with mild and accurate intervention. This current stability is a clear and quite a true reflection of the state of the naira.

Rubbish propaganda.

I can bet you that this kind of woman will not be busy creating green light flashes to men everywhere. Esp. powerful men.
Thereby, consequently claiming that many men are trying to sexually abuse or harass her.

It amazes me if a woman getting close to about 50 years of age, is busy disturbing a nation about men's advances towards her.

Senators are supposed to be men / women by the gate. That means, they should be the wisdom tank of the nation, and people of high maturity of character.

And Natasha deleted her tweet accusing Reno of sexual harassment with no traceses.

She accused Yahya Bello of the same thing and couldn't prove it.

Everyone want to sleep with Natasha who has 6 kids for 6 different men.

She is overated with bad attitude.
Very aggressive woman.

It is sheer stupidity to be earning such money and his company is bleeding N400 billion.
I think his employment contract was signed when the company was constantly profitable.

If they have not considered a need to re-negotiate his payments, that means the company might be projecting the current year-end loss/es to be a temporal thing.

MTN should gradually bounce back with current approved product tariff hike, and FX price stability.

This Natasha of a woman too get her own for bodi!

Reno Omokri made a strong allegation against her about a certain time she falsely accused him of sexually harassing her, he attacked her with facts and she deleted the false allegations. What an act!

Also, if you listened to her whenever she speaks, you will notice the presence of more than three men in a single woman!

She sounds too knowing and always wanting to prove a point even when there is no sane reason to do that.

The issue of seat. Reports confirm that she is not the only senator whose seat will be changed without notice. She is only unnecessarily sensationalizing the matter taking advantage of Akpabio's unpopular stance in the court of public opinion.

Abegiii, make she shift jare.
Spot on.

This is the kind of exploitation that the NLC should have focused their fights on.

Petrol pricing reduction, naira valuation, telecoms billing, bank's charges etc.

Those are the areas a serious NLC should have continuously fought the govt, instead of just salary increase that has further hiked inflation and more taxes.

Yes, I learnt one of her parents is not Nigerian.
If you have her youthful picture that shows her foreign gene, you can share it.

We all know what she’s saying is possible. We have men that are randy in high places both public and private. Again, she’s a beautiful light skinned woman who happens to have some Caucasian genes in her. These attributes are enough to trigger some randy men to make amorous advances towards her.
I don't think she has Caucasian genes in her.

She bleached her skin obviously.

You can check her teenage skin colour in the middle picture of the 3 pics below:

She needs to work on herself, I mean her mindset and appeal towards opposite sex. We have had enough of her issues.

chaloskyx:
1. Ukraine set up the meeting in DC. They gave the impression they had agreed to sign the deal. Ukraine's cabinet said they approved the deal
2. Trump got everyone there to welcome Zelensky and had their lunch being prepared.
3. The little bit we are seeing is like the last 10 minutes...this actually had been going on for 40 minutes before this blow up.
4. Trump, Vance, Rubio and Bessett were thinking they are here to sign the deal and just doing the premeeting reporter event for the press.
5. Zelensky started right away on trying to renegotiate the deal that had been agreed to by his cabinet. Trump kept saying we can talk about that later, Vance kept saying we will talk about that later...and Zelensky kept on and on like he has before...Then Zelensky said something about the US not doing enough...an Trump corrected and said "Yes we have" and "a lot more than some". Zelensky kept it up and demanding to know how the US was going to assure security for Ukraine (which the US has not offered to do) and how much money Ukraine needed. Vance asked him about showing some gratitude to the US for their aid and Zelensky called him a B it ch (barely picked up on mic, but, it's there)...that is when things between trump and Zelensky derailed. Trump took his team out of the room and Zelensky's team was taken to a different room and Trump's tam agreed this was a set-up so Zelensky could plead his case for money and military aid and rebuilding aid and not to sign the deal and that Zelensky needed to leave.
Zelensky's team asked to meet anyway and were told NO.
Then Zelensky called and was told NO.
Next thing, Zelensky is in UK with Starmer and was caught in the UK badmouthing Trump and the US again.
I do not want the US involved with Zelensky or Ukraine at all. All the missing money, the disrespecting the US, The Oval Office, Trump and Vance and the people of the US was too much. He needs to suck up to the UK, EU, Canada....and leave the US out of it.
With this your narrative, please, are you not aware that the USA actually manipulated this guy into warring with Russia?

After getting significant parts of his country levelled to the ground, you are now saying he should just consent to a forced debt repayment of about $500 billion?


So, it is now that America's eyes are clear that the war is unnecessary?

If Trump is claiming it's all about MAGA and global cause, how about multiple $billions still being allocated to Israel. I don't have issues with that, but are the Ukrainians not also human beings?

How many decades will it take his country to generate such amount? Or else, USA jumps upon dem and takeover their mineral resources.

Make una dey get some conscience in this life o.

zuby4real10:
United state are so pained with this war cos they end up wasting $350billion for nothing that's y trump is so pained, he even called Biden stupid president out of anger. The war is tactically over and Putin is the winner.
But, are you justifying Trump's tagging of Ukraine's mineral resources as collateral for an over-quoted loan repayment?

Trump is being brutal to the guy because he campaigned for the opposition. So, he sees him as a kind of enemy. If the case was different, he could have considered writing it off, or a reduced amount for repayment.

It's all undue bullying, pressuring and manipulation from Trump and his team. Becoz a loaning term was obviously not stated in d initial prompts.

But, he has forgotten that the extreme measures he his applying to the the man will further affect millions of already over-burdened Ukrainians.

A leader of a country should be more diplomatic, careful with utterances and decisions. Trump is not that kind.

Yes, the war is undue and it should end.

Trump, running a world power nation is not the same as running a for profit business empire where you must make profit and balance your accounting book. The earlier you stop listening to Elon Musk, the better for you and America.



I pray Trump doesn't bring the eventual downfall of the great American nation.
TBH, I don't think he is doing it coz he is scared of Putin. . He has no reason to be scared him.

He gave a timeline for the war resolution during his electoral campaign and I think that timeline is about to elapse.

He is just trying to appear like he keeps to his word. Also, he is concerned about the wastage of funds to a needless war.

So, he feels a bit of massaging Putin, would make him quickly achieve his promise.

I went to their branch at Oba Akran, Ikeja, some years back to open an account, and they declined my application. I asked one of their employees, and he signaled something like salary range.

If you weren't earning like 800k per month or so, and they'll check your employers' profile too. Becoz I was not owing any bank.

I used to see them at Chevron offices, Exxon and P&G etc. Those guys are not desperate at all. Very selective and they basically deal accounts of multinationals.

I am not a fan of Akpabio.

I also acknowledge that the Nathasha Lady Senator is a beautiful woman.

However, I will urge everyone to kindly listen to what Senator Ireti Kingibe said on this matter on Arise.

Even if there was an sexual talk from Akpabio to her, it does not give her the passage to become unruly and dramatic in the house.

She would have received sexual advancements from other men in there, and she could have made some to guys too. These are private matters and should be addressed as such.

For me, she is just a troublesome personalty.

She is desecrating the Senate chamber and bringing the Senate into disrepute.

Honestly, electorates need to be careful with the people they elect into office. How can someone of Natasha's level of reasoning be a senator? This is not a childish act, it is callous and clever approach to divert attention.

This woman called Natasha must face the consequences of her actions.
A very highly unintelligent woman.

And, if her statement is true, don't be surprised that she could have given out a greenlight to the man first. .

No composure, decorum or tact required of a person of the nations's highest decisive chamber.
