Elisha Ishaku Abbo, a former MP representing the north of Senate Adamawa, announced that no one can recall the 10th Senate representative Kogi Central, representing Kogi Central, and the senator representing Kogi Central.
Abbo made a claim in an interview with Arise News on Wednesday night, April 2. He criticized the Senate’s suspension of Natasha and accused Senate President Godswill Akpabio of politically biased and highly leveraged means.
Abu believes that Akpabio’s method of suspending Natasha is “unfair”. He recalled Akpabio’s case with then-Senate President Bukola Saraki during his eighth Senate period, which was resolved in a “mature” manner.
“It’s a different dimension in terms of Natasha. He sat like an emperor, who claimed he was and said the woman should be suspended for six months, withdrew her security, stopped her salary, forbidden her to see her near the National Assembly building, and even ordered the Inspector General Director not to provide security.”
Abbo further argued that Akpabio put her life at risk by withdrawing Natasha’s safety.
“In another way, he was exposed to her being killed. When you withdraw someone’s safety (which is wrong), it means you are exposed to her being killed. IG realizes that this is not a good thing because something will happen if they hear about Natasha being killed tomorrow.”
Abbo raised questions about the legality of Natasha’s suspension, comparing her case to Akpabio’s past actions in the Senate.
“If Akpabio was not suspended for his seat at the 8th Congress, what if your only motivation was to suspend Natasha for six months because of his seat?” he asked.
Abbo also noted that Natasha has obtained a court injunction before the substantive case was heard unless the Senate investigated her alleged misconduct. However, he claimed the Senate ignored the court’s ruling.
“The Senate opposes the court’s judgment and suspends her, which is a contempt for the court,” he said. “It was after they suspended Natasha that they went to the court to evacuate the order that prohibited them. I regret to use the word, but instead of arresting Akpabio temp to see the court, he timidly evacuated his judgment and withdrew himself from the case.”
Abbo dismissed that the process was gaining any momentum and insisted it was a fraudulent plan.
“Senator Natasha should keep doing what she is doing. I heard they want to recall her – not remember Natasha. Please remember and write it down, we are not the Banana Republic. They went to Forge Signatures,” he said.
