Senator Olujimi Urges Akpoti-Uduaghan to Drop Lawsuit Against Akpabio

FORMER Senate Minority Leader, Biodun Olujimi, has appealed to Kogi Central Senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, to withdraw her N100 billion defamation lawsuit against Senate President, Godswill Akpabio.

Speaking in an interview on Arise TV on Saturday, Olujimi expressed concern over the escalation of the dispute between Akpoti-Uduaghan and Akpabio.

Naija News understands that the rift between both senators began on February 20, when they engaged in a heated argument over a change in seating arrangements during plenary.

On February 25, the Senate referred Akpoti-Uduaghan to its Committee on Ethics, Privileges, and Public Petitions for disciplinary review.

Following this, Akpoti-Uduaghan alleged that her troubles in the Senate began after she rejected sexual advances from Akpabio, prompting her to file a defamation lawsuit against the Senate President. (Naija News)
