‘Sexual harassment’: I won’t be intimidated — Natasha

Suspended Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan




Suspended Kogi Central Senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, has vowed not to be intimidated following the alleged misuse of a 2015 CNN documentary to discredit her sexual harassment claim against Senate President, Godswill Akpabio.

In a statement uploaded on her Facebook page, Natasha said her attention had been drawn to the documentary by @Purefoyamebo, which captured the essence of Yoruba culture through Aunty Nike of Nike Art Gallery.

She alleged that unscrupulous persons had maliciously misinterpreted the documentary’s intent using Battabox Nigeria’s version.

“My attention has been drawn to my feature in a 2015 @CNN documentary by @purefoyamebo which captured the essence of Yoruba culture through Aunty Nike of @nikeartgallery.

“Unscrupulous persons (like one in the attached) have maliciously misinterpreted the intent using @BattaBoxNIGERIA’s version of the documentary,” she wrote.

Addressing her stance on religious tolerance, Natasha said: “As a Christian, daughter to a Muslim father, I respect all religions and appreciate the beauty in all legal aspects of Nigerian culture.”

The senator reaffirmed her commitment to standing her ground despite alleged intimidation, suspension, and fraudulent recall.

“Against intimidation, illegal suspension and fraudulent recall, I stand my ground on my Sexual Harassment claim against the Nigerian Senate President Godswill Akpabio,” she added. (Saturday Tribune)
