One is the number of armed policemen that we met outside, you know, all well kitted with guns, who charged at a female senator who is unarmed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe second thing is the fact that the Senate, under the leadership of Akpabio, of course, have decided to become law breakers, and by denying the entrance into the chambers to resume my team,\u201d Akpoti-Uduaghan asserted, directly questioning the integrity of the legislative body.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on what she described as attempts to \u201ctwist a narrative\u201d by the Senate\u2019s team, Akpoti-Uduaghan clarified the legal implications of the court\u2019s decision.<\/p>\n<p>Citing Section 318 of the 1999 Nigerian Constitution, she explained that a court\u2019s \u201cdecision\u201d encompasses more than just an \u201corder,\u201d including judicial decrees, sentences, convictions, and recommendations.<\/p>\n<p>She argued that even if the court\u2019s pronouncement was termed a \u201crecommendation,\u201d it is still a binding judicial decision.<\/p>\n<p>Further buttressing her point, she referenced Section 287, Subsection 3 of the 1999 Constitution, which explicitly states that \u201cdecisions\u2026 of any court\u201d are binding on \u201cevery authority<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>She described the upper legislative chamber as a body of lawbreakers with no respect for the judiciary and the Nigerian constitution.
