Senate President Godswill Akpabio has recounted that he spent a night inside the Dangote Cement factory in Obajana, Kogi State, on the wedding day of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.
Speaking during Thursday’s plenary at the National Assembly, Akpabio, a former Minister of the Niger Delta, highlighted his strong ties to Natasha’s family, describing her husband as a close friend.
“I slept in Dangote Cement factory in Obajana, Kogi State, on the night of Senator Natasha’s wedding because the Kogi airport lights were in a poor state,” Akpabio said.
Meanwhile, the Senate on Thursday suspended Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan for six months over alleged misconduct in the chamber.
The resolution came after the Senate adopted the report of the Committee on Ethics, Code of Conduct, and Public Petitions, presented by its Chairman, Senator Neda Imasuen.
