Kogi Central Senator opposed the report on the suspension of the proposal by the Senate to interrupt the plenary meeting yesterday. Hearing her say, “This injustice against me will not be maintained. I will fight it.
However, the House ordered her to exit and she was accompanied by sergeant personnel.
Victor Giwa, working with legal counsel, revealed that the Ethics and Privileges Commission adopted a court order that allegedly restricted the Senate from taking further litigation on the matter, pending a motion to notify.
Giwa argued that the senator had sought legal intervention and that her suspension was invalid until the court otherwise.
“The suspension is invalid and cannot even take any effect. The suspension is illegal because there is a court order that restricts further action from the Senate Ethics and Privileges Committee.
The committee disobeyed a valid court order that mocked the chamber where the law should be maintained. ” said Giva.
Similarly, Kogi’s report responded to the Senate’s decision, which on its page entitled “Natasha’s suspension: Can we conclude: Does the Nigerian Senate have no court-ordered greetings?”
The report argues that the court has issued clear instructions in the case of Natasha and Akpabio. The court insisted that the court had ordered the committee to stay away from the matter because it had been heard in court.
It further revealed that the Senate blatantly ignored the court order and raised questions about the integrity and ethics of the Senate Ethics and Privileges Committee. It also questioned whether their actions deserve simulation.
