Akpabio is the worst Senate President Nigeria’s ever had- Senator Natasha
On Tuesday, suspended Kogi Central Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan openly declared Senate President Godswill Akpabio to be the worst in Nigeria’s history.
She asserted that Akpabio’s leadership style resembles a third term as governor of Akwa Ibom State, suggesting an autocratic approach to his role.
Akpoti-Uduaghan made these statements to journalists outside the National Assembly gate after being denied entry to the complex, preventing her from resuming her senatorial duties.
She condemned the prevention of her entry, stating that her earlier outburst on the Senate floor was a culmination of the many wrongs Akpabio has inflicted upon her.
“And I will say this, that it’s a shame that we have had some many good Senate Presidents like Chuba Okadigbo of blessed memory, we’ve had David Mark, Bukola Saraki, and we’ve even had Ahmed Lawan who is currently a senator.
“This is much the worst Assembly Nigeria has ever had and I hope we will not have to suffer this anymore because it tells a lot on the individual.“I have said this before and I’m saying it again, Senate President Godswill Akpabio runs the Nigerian Senate as if it’s a third term governor of Akwa Ibom.
