Not on official basis
Yes that's why she is representing herself as an elected senator

The suspension us even illegal and questionable because the main issues of sexual harassment has not been addressed by the senate.

Difrent:
Like what shes doing or not
Its important to put people like Akpabio where they belong
And its certainly not at the head of NASS.

I love what the woman is doing, she's fighting for herself and other women. Don't pretend not to know men like Akpabio, many young men are having problems in their homes because of his likes , it's time one of them goes down , maybe it will give the rest sense.
Natasha ain't a saint
But if you can't prove anything against her or take her up in court (whether regular courts or courts of public opinion) just STFU
You're totally getting it wrong.....

Even younger people sleep with married women...
Younger people sleep with their friend's sisters and mother...
Younger people commit sexual crimes..

This is not particular to adult or people in high places....

But Natasha doesn't have any evidence against the man she's accusing.

You're asking Akpabio to sue her.... If he does that now, you will claim he's using his position to intimidate her using the court.

You people are saying that he's a randy man.... But she has blackmailed many people and she's supposed to be right this time around?

Didn't you read the indices? She never came up with any allegations or accusations in her life..... But because she disobeyed the house rules that she was ignorant of ... She feels she's too big to be punished and so she wants to use sexual harassment as a cover up.

If you had read her petition, you will know that she's just seeking for pity.

Two things she claimed happened....

Akpabio fondled her hands while her husband walked behind them.... That's sexual behaviour she never mentioned or withdrew her hands from Akpabio's.... But she enjoyed the moment and kept the handling going on.

Second one, she claimed he asked her to make him happy.... She translates this to mean sex..... Don't you know that that statement can mean anything?

Also, where's the evidence he sexually harassed her ..... She's yet to tender any... But she wants him to step down?

Does that make any sense to you?

The way this issue is being handled is absurd. First off, it’s clear the government is more concerned about protecting its own interests than about tackling real problems. If the Nigerian intelligence agencies are truly incapable of protecting their own government protocols, then they need to be fired immediately. How could a woman like Akpoti-Uduaghan, who was suspended for raising valid concerns about misconduct, manage to attend an international meeting without the proper clearance? The fact that she was even able to address the IPU at all shows there’s a serious failure on the part of Nigeria’s leadership to manage basic internal processes.

Where was this investigation when accusations of sexual harassment against the Senate President surfaced? No investigation into those claims, but now the government is scrambling because a woman—who’s already facing political persecution—seated herself at an international forum to raise her concerns. This stinks of political games, not genuine national interest. The government needs to focus on the real issues—not harass those who dare speak out, especially when their rights have been violated.

If the Senate and intelligence agencies spent less time worrying about trivial matters and more time dealing with the real abuses happening under their watch, we might actually make some progress.


Apkabio said on the record, she is no longer a senator if she is on suspension. So did she attend the IPU as a private citizen. Or was Apkabio ignorant of what it means to be a suspended senator ? Or is the government going after a private citizen who is exercising her freedom of expression. Anyway you twist it. It will further incriminate Akapbio or it will incriminate the government.
Well spoken

see how you left the main issue dey yarn dust. Is Akpabio guilty or not? Which one is bring a man down? A man that has no control down there!
Where's the evidence?

You can't asked me if he's guilty or not because there's no evidence to her claims......

Some of you just read people's comments and take your points there ....

Go and read her petition and you will know that she's just a slanderer and seeking pity.

She's claiming she's fighting for women..... Same way your activist claim they're fighting for the common man but takes bribes to take sides.....

what is the point of this epistle when they are investigating the matter... Why can't you blame the woman that went there illegally and even using her own money to fund the trip. Let's call a spade a spade, she is doing too much to tarnish the image of the Senate.

We are in a democracy. Let no one dare drag Senator Natasha Akpoti to Bar Beach or tie her to a drum for a political execution masked as discipline. That era of state-sanctioned fear is gone—and if you try it, Nigeria will ignite.

As a private citizen, she reserves the constitutional right to express herself. The people of Kogi Central chose her with full awareness of who she is: a woman who doesn’t bend, who doesn’t break, and who will not stand by in the face of injustice. That courage is exactly why they chose her.

Now, to those shielding Senator Akpabio—your efforts will fail. He too must walk the same tightrope of accountability. The international community is watching, and this time, it cannot be buried. The era of selective silence is dead.


She is a sitting senator. She earned her place. Who are you to say she’s “tarnishing her image”? Are you a senator yourself? Why cry louder than the bereaved?

I don’t know Senator Natasha personally, but as a deeply concerned Nigerian, I speak for millions when I say we are tired. Tired of the two-tiered justice system, tired of the rules being applied to some but not others. Tired of this elite chessboard where only the king’s friends rise.

Just look at how Asiwaju has turned the government into a personal reunion of old money and political godsons. Appointing only children of the elite, or cronies. Where is the meritocracy?

Now Akpabio—who presides over investigations into others—runs from investigation into allegations of sexual harassment himself? The hunter afraid to be hunted? The man who opens files for others but locks his own drawer shut?

This is not personal. This is principle.
This is not tribalism. This is patriotism.
This is not gender bias. This is justice.


You will not hang Natasha to make room for cowards. Not this time. Not on our watch.

Probe should also be launch into the failure of the government in the past few years as outline by Raye on X, let the energy be on the same wavelength.
..this is what state security services will be more serious and interested in....but they are not interested in the bandits, terrorists, Fulani herdsmen and Bello turji the bandits leader that have been attacking, kidnappingand killing nigerians.. they are not interested in this... but serious and interested in Natasha attending IPU meeting .,it's a pity

NATASHA ACCUSED SENATE PRESIDENTS, AND SHE CHALLENGED HIM FOR OPEN AND LIVE INVESTIGATION, INSTEAD FOR YOUR FATHER TO SUBJECT HIMSELF TO INVESTIGATION, SHE HAS BEEN EVADING AND BLOCKING INVESTIGATION, BUT HAMMERING ON DIFFERENT ORDERS TO DODGE THE MAIN ISSUE (ALLEGATIONS)

It's either u have issues with comprehension or u r just being stupidly mischievous. Most of u think and reason from ur anus. Whether or not she has a genuine concern, how did she managed to access IPU to d extent of representing Nigeria? It's either she impersonates or collaborated certain interest to embarrass the country.

Membership of IPU isn't individual nor personal, it's representative of a member country. So, she couldn't represent Nigeria because she wasn't cleared to so do and she can't represent herself because an individual can't be a member.

I actually few days ago called for investigation otherwise, Nigeria will be seen as a lawless country. The prob is necessary to ascertain lacsity in d security and intelligent circle.

Keep on talking like mad slave without single brain, she would release evidence on air for foolish people like you to twist again, if you are not a stupid person, you would have known, people normally release evidences in court premises.

If not because prejudice has wiped away your common senses, you would have asked He-goat to come for investigation, where two of them, will face panels to proof his innocence.
