Senate Reacts Strongly To Natasha’s Outburst

On Friday, Senate spokesman Yemi Adaramodu criticized his colleague, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, over a seating dispute that occurred in the chamber.

Akpoti-Uduaghan, who represents Kogi Central under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), had refused to sit in the seat assigned to her on Thursday, referencing Order 10 of the Senate Standing Rules, which safeguards the privileges of members.

As tensions rose, Senate President Akpabio instructed security to escort the female senator out of the chamber, but the intervention of other lawmakers prevented the situation from escalating further.

In an interview on Channels Television’s *Sunrise Daily*, Adaramodu responded to the incident, stating that the Senate was not a platform for creating controversies.

“What we are saying is that the National Assembly is not for content creation in entertainment. National Assembly is for serious business,” he said.

Adaramodu, who represents Ekiti South Senatorial District, also weighed in on the bullying allegation of the Kogi senator.

“If she is talking like that being bullied or sidelined, as a first-timer, she even had three committees that she was appointed as chairman.

“You are entitled to only committee to be the chairman and she is in charge of Foreign Affairs, NGOs now,” the Senate spokesman said.

Regarding the potential for disciplinary action against Natasha, the Senate spokesman mentioned that her fellow Kogi State senator, Isah Jubril, had already apologized on her behalf.

He reassured that the 10th Senate would not revisit the matter following the apology made on Akpoti-Uduaghan’s behalf.

“The Senate as a whole has already accepted that tendered apology, so we are not going to revisit that,” Adaramodu stated
