Suspended Senator Natasha Akpoti-uduaghan, who represents Kogi Central, urged Police Inspector General Kayode Egbetokun to dismiss a petition filed by Senate President Godswill Akpabio, accusing her of criminal slander and incitement.
Naija News The report said in the petition, Akpabio claimed that Akpoti-uduaghan had wrongly accused him of orchestrating her assassination. The Senate president described the claim as a “heuristic lie” and accused the senator of spreading false reputations, damaging his reputation and inciting unrest.
But, in a statement Saturday by her attorney Victor Giwa, Natasha
She called on the IGP to investigate Akpabio to accuse its life threatening, citing the withdrawal of its securities “illegal” under the Senate presidential order.
Natasha insists that Akpabio’s petition is a deliberate strategy to distract law enforcement from more pressing charges against him.
She said “We are still attorneys for Senator Natasha Akpoti Uduaghan, who has since been called our client. Our attention has attracted Senate Chairman Godswill Akpabio to file a petition to our client, distinguished Senator Natasha Akpoti Akpoti uduaghan, allegedly excited about the public’s excitement for his people.
“Our client’s position is that the Senate president should conduct a full investigation into security personnel before any inflammatory allegations against him.
“The Senate President is the “primary suspect” to the life of outstanding Senator Natasha, whose securities are illegally revoked under the direction of the Senate President.
“We therefore call on the Senate President to conduct a comprehensive investigation into himself, rather than diverting the attention of security personnel through bubble petitions.
“Only when the investigation draws conclusions, the allegations have been proven to be false, and the questions of incitement and false allegations against Senator Natasha can be entertained.
“We therefore call on the Inspector General of Police to cease the Senate President’s petition to divert and bias investigations.”
