The Senate has recommended that Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan issue a written apology over her allegations against Senate President Godswill Akpabio, following weeks of tension within the chamber.

The recommendation was disclosed on Thursday during plenary by Senator Neda Imasuen (LP, Edo South), Chairman of the Senate Committee on Ethics, Code of Conduct, and Public Petitions.

Additionally, the Senate dismissed Akpoti-Uduaghan’s claims that Akpabio had been deliberately silencing her, describing the allegations as frivolous and baseless.

As part of its ruling, the Senate recommended the following sanctions:

A six-month suspension from all legislative activities, effective March 6, 2025.

Immediate surrender of all Senate properties in her possession.

A directive prohibiting her from being anywhere near the legislative chamber during the suspension period.

The development follows a heated confrontation in the Senate last Thursday, when Akpoti-Uduaghan protested the reassignment of her seat by Akpabio.

She arrived at the session to find her nameplate removed and her seat reassigned, prompting her to challenge the move and accuse the Senate leadership of marginalizing her voice.
