Ekaette Akpabio, the wife of Senate President Godswill Akpabio, has accused Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan of making false claims against her husband.
Speaking in an interview on Friday, Ekaette described her husband as a “disciplined and jovial man” and dismissed the allegations against him.
Her statement comes in response to Akpoti-Uduaghan’s recent claim that her troubles in the Senate began after she allegedly rejected sexual advances from Akpabio.
Akpoti-Uduaghan, the senator representing Kogi Central, made the allegations while recounting her experience in the upper legislative chamber.
She claimed that since assuming office, she has faced challenges due to her refusal to yield to Akpabio’s supposed overtures.
The allegations have sparked controversy, with some demanding an investigation while others, including Akpabio’s supporters, have dismissed them as baseless.
The Senate President has yet to personally respond to the claims.
