Natasha: You Won The Election Because The People Of Kogi State Did Not Know Your Character -Nwebonyi

In a recent interview with TVC , Senate Deputy Chief Whip Senator Onyekachi Nwebonyi strongly criticized Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, claiming her initial electoral victory was due to voters being unaware of her true character.

Nwebonyi argued that Akpoti’s conduct in the Senate has now revealed her true nature, accusing her of disregarding the chamber’s rules. He stated, “She won that election because the people didn’t know her character. But now she has brought her character to the public view. This is a lady who disrespects the Senate’s rules.”

He further alleged that Akpoti frequently displays disrespectful behavior, specifically by failing to adhere to Senate traditions. One key example he mentioned was her refusal to stand in plenary sessions when the presiding officer and principal officers enter, a protocol expected of all senators.

His remarks have sparked debates about the conduct and responsibilities of elected officials in Nigeria.
