Senator Natasha Finally Reveals How Akpabio S3xually Harass Her

Senator Natasha finally reveals how Akpabio s3xually harass her. She said “Akpabio Told Me That My Husband Is Really Enjoying, That My Waist Would Make Really Good Movements”

Akpoti-Uduaghan was suspended from the senate on March 6 for “gross misconduct and unruly behaviour” over her seating arrangement altercation with the senate president.

Her suspension came a day after she submitted a s3xual harassment petition against Akpabio on the floor of the senate.

In an interview with the BBC, Akpoti-Uduaghan restated that the “gross misconduct” premise for her suspension was a smokescreen to silence her.

She said Akpabio frequently made s3xual advances towards her in and out of the senate chamber – and sometimes before other senators.

She alleged that Akpabio would “squeeze my hands in a very suggestive way”.
“There was a time I forgot to wear my ring because I rushed to work. And there were about five senators there.

And Akpabio said ‘oh Natasha, you are not wearing your ring… is this an invitation to treat?” she said.

“There was another time he made a statement like
‘Natasha, your husband is really enjoying. It looks like you’d be able to make good movements with your waist’.
He makes such s3xist statements. And then they (other senators) all laughed.”

Akpoti-Uduaghan broke down in tears when the interviewer asked what impact her victim shaming and intimidation claims have had on her.

“I just want a place where I would just work. I thought the worst was over, but I guess for a woman, it’s never really over, right?”

Stop Blaming Leaders, Change Begins With You, EARCOM Tells Nigerians

Stop blaming leaders, change begins with you, EARCOM tells Nigerians. The Head of the Media and Advocacy Unit of the Akwa Ibom State Ethical and Attitudinal Reorientation Commission, EARCOM, Rev. Osondu Ahirika PhD has rejected the notion that leaders are solely to be blamed for the problems of the nation, harping that citizens must return to the “change begins with me” campaign.

Dr Ahirika said EARCOM will continue its campaign for a mindset shift and the understanding that until they become good followers and realise the need to ‘change’ first before asking for good leaders, then the problem of bad governance will continue because leaders are a reflection of their followers.

Ahirika who spoke as a guest on the Big Talk on Passion 94.5 FM Uyo on Monday, while conceding that attitudinal change should be a ”top-down approach”, however, argued that without a corresponding bottom-top approach” reorientation towards raising responsible followership the vision of a great nation will never materialise.

He said Nigeria continues to remain stagnant because citizens blame everything on leaders without making an intentional effort to correct the ills of society by addressing social vices and character flaws they manifest, insisting that, citizens at all levels and rungs of the society should change themselves first, without which leaders who emerge in future will still be flawed as others before them.
