Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, the lawmaker representing Kogi Central in the National Assembly, has revealed that there are moves to suspend her following her recent outburst at the National Assembly.
She disclosed this during a phone interview with Ahmad Isah, popularly known as Ordinary President, on Berekete Family Radio/ TV in Abuja on Friday.
Tensions flared in the Red Chamber on Thursday after Akpoti-Uduaghan clashed with the Senate leadership over a seating arrangement dispute.
The controversy began when her seat was reassigned to another lawmaker following a reshuffle that was triggered by the defection of opposition lawmakers to the majority wing.
Senate Chief Whip, Senator Tahir Monguno, cited Senate rules to justify the reassignment of the seats, explaining that seating adjustments fell under the Senate President’s authority.
