Some Senators have allegedly claimed that their signatures had been misused to create the false impression of unanimous support for Senator Natasha’s suspension!
The controversy surrounding the suspension of Kogi Central Senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, has intensified, with new allegations suggesting that the signatures attached to the Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges, and Public Petitions’ report were not meant to endorse the suspension but were simply attendance records.
Several senators who signed the attendance register have since distanced themselves from the report, arguing that they were not given an opportunity to review the final draft before it was presented on the Senate floor.
A senator who attended the meeting but wished to remain anonymous told PREMIUM TIMES that the proper procedure would have been for committee members to first review and approve the report before it was presented. However, committee members were unaware of its contents until it was publicly read in the Senate.
