The suspended senator on behalf of Kogi Central, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan apologized to former Education Minister Oby Ezekwesili for the insult she was exposed during a fierce exchange with the senator representing Ebonyi North, Onyekachi Nwaebonyi on Tuesday, March 25.
The exchange was at a Senate Ethics Committee hearing on allegations of sexual harassment brought by Akpoti-uduaghan against Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
During the exchange, Nwaebonyi told Ezekwesili, “You are an insult to women” and she told him to “shut up.”
React and apologize to Oby Church for X’s shorter lens.
She wrote: “@obyezeks, madam, I apologize for the insult. Knowing that you brought me… for us… as mothers and leaders.
“Know that you are a true idol of integrity, courage and visionary leadership.
“Your firm commitment to good governance, education and democracy continues to inspire generations.
“The advocates of accountability… Nigerians thank you. I celebrate your glory, resilience and selfless service. You are a hero.”
