Amidst the allegation of sexual advances levelled against President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio by Senator representing Kogi Central, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, a leader of the All Progressives Congress in Delta South, Chief Ayirimi Emami, has called for restrain in the escalating war of words, TRIBUNE reports.
Recall that while speaking on Friday at Arise TV programme, Morning Show, the Kogi Central lawmaker alleged that she was being victimized by the Senate President following her rebuff of sex advances from the Senate President.
The APC chieftain in a statement on Saturday, demanded immediate ceasefire from both federal lawmakers as he declared that enemies of President Bola Tinubu administration were determined to feast on it and create a distraction to Nigerians.
He noted that “the avoidable media war, took the minds of majority of Nigerians off the critical issue of the N54.99 trillion 2025 budget President Tinubu signed into law Friday, February 28.”
Emami maintained that “rather than focusing on the nitty gritty of the 2025 budget and how it would accelerate the palpable progress being made in the country, many Nigerians are exerting their energies on the disagreement between the two distinguished Senators.”
While emphasising the need for the integrity of the Senate to be respected, he dropped the hint that APC leaders in the south-south “as family, we are making efforts to resolve the misunderstanding between the distinguished Senate President, Goodwill Akpabio and our sister-in-law, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.
