Human rights activist Sandra Duru, widely known as Professor Mgbeke, has leveled explosive allegations against Kogi Central Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, accusing her of orchestrating a false sexual harassment claim against Senate President Godswill Akpabio as part of a broader plot to destabilize the government. In a detailed Facebook post, Mgbeke claimed Natasha admitted in recorded phone conversations that the allegations were fabricated to remove Akpabio and undermine President Bola Tinubu’s administration, which she allegedly referred to as a “Yoruba Government” targeted to prevent an eight-year tenure.

Mgbeke disclosed that Natasha repeatedly contacted her, offering N200 million to mobilize women’s groups and international organizations like the United Nations to pressure Akpabio’s removal. “Natasha told me there was no sexual harassment. She has no evidence. The plan was to use ‘useful idiots’ like Dr. Oby Ezekwesili, FIDA, and others to disrupt Senate proceedings,” Mgbeke stated, sharing excerpts of recorded calls. She also accused Natasha of plotting to falsely link Akpabio to the murder of a man named Umoren, claiming his kidney was transplanted into Akpabio’s wife—a narrative Mgbeke called “politically motivated lies.”

According to Mgbeke, Natasha boasted of recruiting media outlets, including Arise News, to amplify her claims and even secure awards to legitimize her cause. “She called supporters ‘Gullible & Hungry’ citizens eager to fight the government. Akpabio isn’t the real target—Tinubu is,” Mgbeke alleged, adding that Natasha aimed to position herself as Kogi governor or Petroleum Minister in exchange for her role.

Mgbeke further denied Natasha’s claims of never knowing her, revealing they were introduced by an unnamed political party leader. “She threatened me when I refused to join her malicious schemes. I’ve shared all evidence with security agencies,” she said, urging authorities to investigate the recordings and alleged financial transactions.

Natasha has yet to publicly respond to the allegations. Mgbeke concluded, “Natasha lies like a daft. She’s fantastic with deception and must be exposed before she destroys innocent lives.” The Department of State Services and police are reportedly reviewing the evidence, as calls grow for a probe into what Mgbeke describes as a “selfish, dangerous plot against democracy.”
