The Akpabio-Natasha drama.on Friday took another twist as the wife of the Senate President, Mrs. Ekaette Akpabio, joined the fray.
Mrs Akpabio who strongly defended her husband by dismissing allegations of sexual harassment, threatened to take legal action against Senator Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (PDP, Kogi Central).
Senator Natasha had alleged that her ordeal in the Senate began after she rejected Akpabio’s sexual advances.
But, Mrs. Akpabio defended her husband’s character, stating that he is a disciplined and jovial man who respects women.
She also claimed that the allegations were false and unfounded.
Mrs. Akpabio recounted the cordial relationship between both families, dismissing the allegations as a figment of Natasha’s wild imagination.
She also pointed out that she was present at their family residence on December 8, 2023, the alleged date of the incident while emphasising that their families have maintained a long-standing relationship, even before Senator Natasha’s marriage.
Mrs. Akpabio further praised her husband’s discipline, highlighting his track record of supporting women’s inclusion in government, even before becoming Senate President.
Urging women to desist from making false accusations, she vowed to seek legal redress on the matter.
