A fresh political storm is brewing as Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has taken her grievance against Senate President Godswill Akpabio to the United Nations, refusing to bow to pressure for an apology.
The Kogi lawmaker’s move follows a heated exchange in the Senate, where she accused Akpabio of bias and suppression. Amid calls for her to retract her statements, Natasha stood her ground, declaring, “I will not apologize!”
Her petition to the UN signals an escalation in the standoff, as she seeks international attention on what she describes as legislative intimidation. This bold step has sparked intense reactions across Nigeria’s political landscape.
Will the UN intervene, or will this battle remain within the Senate chambers?
