That is when hell was let loose, and all sorts of allegations came up, only after the change of seat and change of committee, which my Senators know to happen from time to time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is said to have happened on December 8, a day before my birthday, which was celebrated in the Stadium in 2023. So from the 8th of December 2023, I never heard, my wife never heard, no Nigerian ever heard, even the husband never heard any issue of sexual harassment until her committee was changed and then her seat was changed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHave you ever wondered about the trauma caused by that same woman on the other people she has accused in the past? None has been proven so far. Do you even wonder about the trauma this caused to the 10th Senate and the image of the Senate with all these useless allegations? I have refrained myself from making a statement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLook at these beautiful women. They have come across me so many times. Have I ever harassed any one of you? Or is the person thinking that you are not beautiful?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Akpabio stated Natasha has a history of falsely accusing people of sexual harassment and he is merely her latest victim The Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, has finally broken his silence on the sexual harassment allegation levelled against him by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.
