Senator Natasha resumes plenary after six-months suspension (video)

Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan representing Kogi Central resumed plenary today October 7 after serving her six-month suspension by the Senate following a shouting match with Senate President Godswill Akpabio over seat rearrangement.

 

 

 

 

The senator joined her colleagues who resumed this morning after 10-week recess of the Upper Chamber.

 

 

 

 

The Kogi Central senator’s plenary resumption follows her earlier return to her office at the Senate about 1.09pm on Tuesday, September 23, where she described her suspension by the Senate as “illegal” and vowed not to apologise to her colleagues in the Senate if that was the condition for letting her into the premises.

 

 

 

Akpoti-Uduaghan was suspended in March this year for six months over alleged misconduct during a protest against the reassignment of her seat on February 20.

 

 

 

 

 

Although her suspension ended in September, legal disputes reportedly delayed her return until now.
