The Senate has vetoed a vote of confidence in its President, Senator Godswill Akpabio, thereby affirming his leadership.

Akpabio’s affirmation by the Senate was unanimously done during Thursday’s plenary, at the aftermath of a motion placed by Senate Leader, Opeyemi Bamidele (Ekiti Central) and seconded by Deputy Minority Leader, Olalere Oyewumi (Osun West).

The decision occurs two days after the suspended Chairman of the Senate Committee on Diaspora and NGOs, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (PDP, Kogi Central), reported to the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) in New York, asserting that she was suspended for filing allegations of sexual harassment against Akpabio.

Reports has it that Natasha reported contempt charges against Akpabio and others over her six-month suspension while neglecting her payment by the Senate.

The Senate beckoned on Nigerians not to be carried away by the allegations, while stating that the case is already at the judiciary.

Quoting Order 40 of its standing rules, the Senate highlighted that it could not tamper in a case under judicial observation.
