Senator representing Kogi central, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, on Monday tendered a sexual harassment petition against Senate President Godswill Akpabio on the floor of the upper legislative chamber.
This is coming few days are Senate Leader Opeyemi Bamidele, said the Senate cannot probe Akpabio5 without any petition to that effect.
Natasha who relied on order 40 of the senate rules, said she had made some comments on Arise TV bordering on alleged sexual harassment by Akpabio.
She said she had decided to table the same petition before the senate.
The senate president who presided thereafter asked the Kogi central senator to proceed with the submission of the petition.
Akpabio thereafter referred the petition to the committee on code of conduct, ethics and public petitions.
He said the committee should “revert to the senate as soon as practicable”.
