sexual harassment is a private issue? Not once or twice after she warned him. You people deserve the leader you have

Stop deflecting it shows a weak mind. We are talking about a personal issue between Natasha and Akpabio, the disregard for the hallowed chambers by her, is a different matter, and that is what am concerned about.

Saying we deserve the type of leaders in this argument is senseless and gibberish, both Natasha and Akpabio are members of the Nigerian political class and what makes Natasha different or better, what has she done differently for her constituents?

Yes, the issues between them are private, let her go to court if she has evidence...you keep shouting assault based on what she said, no evidence have been tendered...you people reason like children, moved by emotions and sentiments.

how is Makoko shanty town a security risk?

which area does it occupy and how is it not befitting to the area?

if you say LASG is "opening up" Makoko shanty town, was it closed before?

what amount of compensation can be given to these settlers that will make up for their being displaced from a place they called home?

how is sand filling this water body good for the environment?

Without going into details, if you understand security, you will understand what I mean. Like I said they should be compensated, compensation should be basic rate of the property they presently occupy...like I said government should avoid demolition unless it's absolutely necessary because of the huge housing deficit in Lagos... demolition leads to further scarcity and discourage other investors that want to go into real estate investment business.

We are in a terrible country. to have suspend a woman who was so brave to have come out for sexual assault and this is what she gets.

The president heard about this!

The first lady who was once a senator knows about this!

The minister of woman affairs knows about this!

But she was shamelessly worked out of the senate

Akpabio was quilty of the offense you can see it all over him

With this move, women who are battling sexual harassment who be afraid to come out. Shame on all of you people!

Let her and her lawyers publish evidence to the public as she rushed to the public over a private issue.

Hemanwel:
Reno Wendell BemiGOAT Simlin, every rational person in Nigeria knows you have been paid heavily to support this Tinubu administration, and attack oppositions! Nothing you say on the Social Media space concerning this administration holds water!

The only people taking you seriously are ronu miscreants who go to bed on empty stomach, forgetting you are far away abroad enjoying the good structures saner countries have provided for their citizens.

Gibberish... please try to make sense by sharing facts, nairaland should be better than this. Reno just gave facts.

Mama ain't none to joke with

This makoko shanty town is a security risk and not befitting for the area it occupies, so government is right in going into the area to open it up, but the settler's should be compensated, legitimate settlers or people who bought land/property legitimately through the local channels should be compensated. Government must act with a human face, housing is a big problem in Lagos, the government should be building low cost housing to rent, not sell, to help the working class and budding entrepreneurs who are a part of our buoyant economy and society.

Lagos State government please build low cost housing like the late Legend Sir Lateef Jakande of blessed memory did, this is a form of welfare which a rich state like Lagos should be doing.

Also please stop demolishing houses, unless a critical road need to pass through or for imminent environmental factors, otherwise it is not enough to demolish homes because people don't have governor consent or papers, those struggling legitimate people built those homes without mortgage with sweat and blood, please encourage the good and working class and entrepreneurs...wave costs off consent/regularisation of papers of properties in downtown, low-cost areas, most of the struggling people buy these lands from local families which is legitimate...goverment should focus on taxing properties in more affluent areas, like in Lekki Victoria Island, and high brow areas....let the people in downtown lakowe, ibeju Lekki, Epe breathe so they can build themselves and people who depend on them, these are struggling people. We need more houses demolition compounds the problems of housing in Lagos.

God bless Lagos State and Nigeria.

ufotunang:
... have investigation been done by the Senate to verify if she is really saying the truth or not

What is stopping them from publishing evidence to the public, as she quickly ran to the public to dish out allegations...the senate said they found no evidence of her claims, they have done their findings.

davidtemi:
Toasting a married woman is an abuse.
Toasting a colleague is an abuse
Toasting a fellow law maker is an abuse of office.

Not until u rape or touch boobs before u abuse a woman "sexually"

Quote the law please, and this is an allegation, which I seriously doubt. She had to wait for this to bring up the issue?

She also have not told us the exact words used by Akpabio, so this just seems a bit of a ruse to me...if the case has been initiated why is she crying up and down on social media, it is a private allegation...and why has the case not been summoned?

Why is her lawyer mute about the case?

A society remains strong and peaceful through logic and sound thought not emotions. Think.

davidtemi:
Because 99% of them are men, and are probably guilty of same accusations

What she is saying is that Akpabio toasted her, toasting is not sexual assault in our law, he didn't carry her to a room, he didn't grab her ass or boobs...no case, she was trying to blackmail him because he switched her seat, she is feeling entitled.

Nollywood or Bollywood can do with a drama queen like you.

If we don't kill kidnappers, soon syndicate will come into Nigeria from all over the world to cash in from kidnapping.

America the most democratic nation still executes deathrow inmates, Japan does, China does. Nigeria politicians are wimps, allowing amnesty international to control them like children, why amnesty no go America go tell them to stop executing people...we are still treated like slaves.

He ain't so mighty after all.

Natasha is carried away by her beauty...we can't allow a lady that thinks like a teenager jeopardise our senate because of her yellow face.

Uchemus:
A senate member alleged she was sexually assaulted by the senate president, sensible folks are calling for the matter to be investigated and all you could come up with is Ipob. Don't you have anything sensible to come up with aside from bigotry?

Tomorrow, it could be your mother, sister or daughter that will be sexually harassed, and when the time comes, do well by accusing them to be members of ipob.

Thank God i left the country when i had the opportunity. I cant imagine sharing a country with idiots, complete twats like you, who hides behind a faceless website to spew rubbish. I only pity your poor kids, born or unborn, who would know their parent as a peasantry Nairaland charlatan who propagated bigotry at any given opportunity.

What is sexual assault?

Even if he toasted her like she claim, in Nigeria law, no law against toasting...or did she follow him into a room?

You people don't use sense at all, just sound like children.

essentialone:
I hate it when ladies scream Sexual Harassment after any small joke. Toasting is not sexual harassment. Did he press your breasts, or did he press your brokos? If Akpabio asked Natasha out, all she needed to have said is, I am not interested. That is not any form of sexual harassment. Let us stop giving oxygen to nonsense accusations. If as a lady, you do not want any man to toast you, then remain in your father house or in your husband house. This world is a free world. Toasting a lady, even if she is married is not a crime. If it is a crime, point it out in the constitution let us see.

Help me ask the clowns, according to her he toasted her,he didn't touch her, and I think the toasting is a lie.

Uchemus:
When you sister or mother gets rapid or sensually harassed, make sure you ask them of evidence.

Mumu zombie she didn't mention rape, according to her he toasted her. Clown...focus on what our political servants do for the people, stop being a slave to politicians. You sound confused, go get a job.

JAWBONE:
Then Akpabio should have allowed the investigation go on and exonerate himself.

Then if the allegations of Natasha are unfounded, she should be punished and even arrested.

Sexual assault allegations is not a joke. So falsely accusing someone of sexual assault should come with stiff punishment.

But now Akpabio has used his powers and cunningly shut the case up.

That makes him look guilty and speaks very badly of Nigeria's National Assembly

The case has no evidence, some senators said they did some investigation and found nothing, if a woman like Natasha has any evidence she should have released it.

I no even understand what she is saying, did she say he toasted her or assaulted her sexually...she is not clear.

brain54:
Na her constituents go suffer...

Too harsh, if you ask me!

Her false accusation, unproven and unclear...if na toast, assault or whatever still not clear is harsher irreparable damage to akoabios reputation. She is full of drama.

zmanto:
Mumu people. Just imagine the kind of leaders we have as law makers

Unproven baseless accusations of such magnitude are grevious, but I think the punishment was in order.

Which kind coconut head be this, the husband go dey suffer o

magoo10:
If this man was busy this wouldn't be what they will be discussing.
Even a dog will be cautions about wanting to lay another man's wife.

She said assault based on toasting, now you add lay...even the toasting, no evidence.

Uchemus:
Sensual harassment is a private matter, involving a senate president at that. I swear you guys deserve all the hardship and suffering. You deserve the leaders you get.

Zombie, sexual harassment how?
Rape, toasting or touching, which one...I think she is lying... anyways like I said its a private matter, further more no evidence, she could be lying. Don't be carried away by emotions, use your coconut head...she clearly broke senate rules on camera by refusing instructions on seat arrangements and causing a big fuss over nothing, no discipline.

Pootle:
yes o them toast her for secret, but she dey tell of us weytin mak we do...i wish her senatorial district withdraw her

I tell you.

You clearly disregarded house rules on camera, problem between you and Akpabio is a private matter.

States in each region should come together a d contribute men and resources and create forest guards.

Very good, the woman disrespected the hallowed chambers.

We must end sensationalism in journalism, if the country is not safe no one will advertise in your papers or news Media.

The man threatened to invite IPOB to protect Igbo lives and businesses in Lagos at a time Igbos were being threatened not to vote there, their businesses being burnt and Igbos being killed

But those who like to shout 'one Nigeria', only heard 'IPOB'. The fact that Igbo lives and interests were being threatened and destroyed meant nothing to them, only IPOB

They charged a man of almost 70 years old to court for terrorism, just because of what he said on a video in his palour, knowing fully well that all he did was talk. All they cared about was teaching him a lesson for mentioning IPOB. They cared nothing about the Igbo lives and businesses being destroyed, which is what angered the man

In the end, the man was discharged of all terrorism charges, but convicted on the ridiculous charge that he called himself "Eze Ndigbo Ajao Estate". They claimed he was parading himself as a King in Lagos. Terrible

Below is the picture of the King of Fulani's in Lagos, the 'Sarkin Fulani Lagos'. Nobody will ever charge him to court, ever ever, he is Fulani

Let this serve as a lesson to any Igbo who still thinks there's anything like 'one Nigeria'

Inviting ipob is like inviting bokoharam, both are terrorists organisation...it is a security threat to the state.

We saw videos of how people were being forced to vote for Obi in southeast, nobody threatened with a terrorist group.

Association is different from chieftaincy titles, that is clear... anyway lawyers go chop

States should earn as they contribute, it will reduce the lazy parasitic behaviour. Some governors are in office to loot allocation they don't care about IGR. Parasites

People should be angry that they are being kidnapped at will. Come out and protest, force the governors to sign death warrants, this is the only way kidnapping will reduce by reducing their numbers and sending a strong message to young ones that want to venture into it, that if you are caught, you will be killed. This is the only guaranteed deterrence.

Firebomber:
Werey black stone worshipers.

The useless cult you are practicing are killing people all over the world yet you idiot sees nothing wrong in it 😂😂😂. Oloriburuku Muhammad family idol ( Allah) worshipers have the audacity to call someone pagan. So amazing. Hope you have slam your head to that useless black stone in Mecca today? Didirin.

I still wonder why you idiot haven't spoken against your useless government that hijack your sense of reasoning and turn you to Arab slave 😂

You are the hypocrites disguising in the house of God, demonic spirit in you will be exposed, you pagan, son of Baal.
