Senate President Godswill Akpabio addressed the recent allegation of sexual harassment made against him by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan on Friday.
Speaking at the 2025 International Women’s Day ceremony, Akpabio reaffirmed the Senate’s commitment to promoting gender equality and eliminating barriers to women’s progress nationwide.
Akpabio, a former Minister of the Niger Delta, highlighted his strong ties to Natasha’s family, describing her husband as a close friend.
“I slept in Dangote Cement factory in Obajana, Kogi State, on the night of Senator Natasha’s wedding because the Kogi airport lights were in a poor state,” Akpabio said.
