Akpabio treated me like a slave, runs NASS like a dictator – Natasha

Akpabio treated me like a slave, runs NASS like a dictator – Natasha

Embattled Kogi Central senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, on
Tuesday accused Senate President Godswill Akpabio of treating her like a slave
and his domestic servant.

 

Natasha made the fresh accusation while addressing
journalists in her office at the National Assembly complex.

 

The Kogi Central senator was suspended six months ago after
accusing Akpabio of sexual harassment and but has not been unable to
substantiate her claims.

 

Her office was reopened by the National Assembly’s sergeant
at arms on Tuesday.

 

Reflecting on her suspension, Natasha said it’s amazing how
much she had to face and survive in the past six months.

 

She said: “From the unjust suspension to the recall, we
survived the blockade of roads, we survived the blackmail from the crazy lady
on Facebook, it’s amazing what we had to survive.

 

“I give God Almighty the glory and my deepest appreciation
to the good people of Kogi Central senatorial district, Nigerians at large, and
to my husband. I pray all men support their wives like you have supported me.

 

“Sometimes, it’s good to put the institutions to the test,
we can’t now down in the face of injustice, no one is more Nigerian us.

 

“Senator Akpabio is not more of a senator than I am, he is
not the governor of this place and he treated me as if I was his servant or
domestic staff in his house.

 

“It’s very unfortunate that at this time after so many years
of democracy we will have a National Assembly been runned by such dictatorship,
it’s totally unacceptable.

 

“As for me, I’m glad to be hear and even though we have been
illegally suspended, no day have I hesitated in effectively carrying out my
duties as a senator of Kogi Central to the very best of my capacity.”
