Thank God, you remember the name. This Justice Okon Abang is confusion itself

JASONjnr:
Let Natasha come before the committee with all her evidence and not a written speech or how he asked me to make him happy....

Someone asked why Akpabio isn't suing her back for character defamation..... You can't sue on someone with allegations until the allegations are cleared before you sue back. Suing now will be seen as a tactic to influence her efforts....

There's a video I came across z which shows how Akpabio ignored Natasha on the very day she visited Akpabio on the December of 2023. He shook hands with her husband but ignored her and moved to the next person.

TreasureJunky:
Story,,,, all these fake praises to Akpabio won't eradicate the fact that Akpabio is the worst senate President Nigeria has ever produced,,, he's also a randy man and very insensitive. We Nigerians see beyond all these fake praises,, Akpabio will not be returned in the next election

The Court of Appeal in Abuja has halt the enforcement of its January 10 judgment, which upheld the Kano State Government’s decision to repeal the 2019 Emirate Council Law.

The ruling of the court by implication implies fall short of affirming the reinstatement of Sanusi Lamido Sanusi as the 16th Emir of Kano, which indicates that decision on his reinstatement has to wait for the Nigeria ‘ s apex court, the Supreme Court’ s pronouncements.

In his ruling Friday, the court also set aside the June 20 order of the Federal High Court in Kano, which nullified the Kano State Government’s actions under the Kano State Emirate Council (Repeal) Law 2024, these actions included dissolving the five emirates created in 2019 and the reinstatement of Sanusi II as Emir.

The Kano State Government been dissatisfied with the ruling and had taken the case to the Supreme Court and also sought an injunction from the Court of Appeal to stop the execution of the judgment.

The three-member panel of justices, led by Justice Okon Abang, granted the request in two separate suits filed by Aminu Babba Dan (Sarkin Dawaki Babba) against the Kano State Government, the Speaker of the House of Assembly, the Inspector General of Police, the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, and other security agencies.

Babba Dan, in his application filed on February 6, 2025, sought an order stopping the enforcement of the appellate court’s January 10 judgment, while the case was still pending at the Supreme Court.

His prays include that the trial court lacked jurisdiction, and that his fundamental rights were at risk, as well as that the ruling should not be enforced until the Supreme Court decides.

He also argued that the Kano State Emirate Council (Repeal) Law 2024, which dissolved the new emirates and reinstated Sanusi II, was unlawfully enacted by the Kano State House of Assembly and signed by the governor.

Justice Abang, while delivering the judgment, stated that the court should maintain the prevailing status before the Federal High Court’s decision on June 13, 2024.

The court held that since an appeal was already before the Supreme Court, it was necessary to preserve the case’s subject matter.

The ruling then went ahead to restrain the Kano State Government and other respondents from enforcing the January 10 judgment and ordered that the situation remain unchanged until the Supreme Court’s final decision.

The Court of Appeal’s January 10 judgment had previously overturned a ruling by the Federal High Court in Kano, which declared the Kano State Emirate Council (Repeal) Law 2024 as null and void.

The appellate court held that chieftain matters fall under the jurisdiction of state high courts, not federal courts, and with the case now before the Supreme Court, the Kano Emirate dispute remains unresolved.

I would have asked if something is wrong with you for claiming that her past allegation involving Reno was a lie should mean that every other allegation involving another person is a lie too.
Reno provided proofs and he was paid compensation for defamation. The proofs were provided in a court of law. Shouldn't Akpabio provide proof if he is innocent of the allegation in a court of law or before the floor of the Senate and make Natasha to pay heavily should she be found lying.

Oh no. He can not risk becoming a floor member for a day to be questioned by his colleagues.

Unfortunately, she was suspended.

She has not received any subpoena from Akpabio bothering defamation over the sexual harassment allegation. That would have been his first action against her since she is temporarily no longer a member of the Senate pending the expiration of the six months suspension with possible resolution of the house to extend or dismiss her.

You really sounds stimulated and the stimulus seems to be in abundance.

The complaint laid by Senator Natsha Akpoti-Uduaghan at the United Nations Inter parliamentary conference in New York on Tuesday has continued to attract reactions.

The Kogi Lawmaker had taken her case before the global institution for them to prevail over what she says is an injustice meted on her.

After listening to her complaint, the IPU told Senator Natasha that it will take necessary steps to address the complaints she brought to the union after listening to the other side.

The Nigerian Senate has however replied to Senator Natasha’s complaint to the IPU through a letter by the Senate Leader, Senator Opeyemi Bamidele.

The letter was read by the Chairperson of the House of Representatives committee on Women Affairs and Social Development, Honorable Kafilat Ogbara, who is attending the event in an official capacity representing Nigeria.

The Senate letter read in part, “Senator Natasha-Akpoti-Uduaghan was suspended for gross misconduct and unruly behaviour and not as a result of allegation of sexual harassment or assault. The authority of the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria firmly refutes the deliberate misinformation and false narrative being circulated by certain media organisations regarding the sixth months suspension of Senator Natsaha-Akpoti-Uduaghan.

“Let it be unequivocally stated that Uduaghan was suspended solely for her persistent act of misconduct and disregard for the Senate Standing Orders.”

Honourable Ogbara, however, called for a thorough investigation into the allegation by Senator Natasha against the Senator President, Godswill Akpabio.

She maintained that procedures and necessary actions under the Senate rules were observed before Senator Natasha’s suspension.

Last week, the Senate suspended the lawmaker in a move that has continued to generate debates across the country.

She had initially submitted a petition to the Senate accusing Akpabio of sexual harassment. But the lawmakers threw it out before suspending her even after submitting another petition.

Senator Natasha vowed to continue the fight against “injustice”. But in the wake of the suspension, Akpabio denied the accusations and maintained he has never assaulted women.

Her altercation with the Senate president started on February 20, 2025, after her seat was changed during plenary.

That is not the first time both individuals had issues. In July 2024, Akpabio had while trying to correct her for misconduct told her to follow the rules and that the Senate is not a nightclub where anybody can talk anyhow. The Akwa Ibom lawmaker, however, later apologised to her for the remark.
