COALITION OF CIVIL SOCIETY GROUPS CONDEMNS SENATOR NATASHA AKPOTI-UDUAGHAN’S ACTIONS, COMMENDS SENATE PRESIDENT FOR INCLUSIVE LEADERSHIP

The Coalition of Civil Society Groups for Peace, Security, Good Governance, Equity and Justice has condemned Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan’s disruptive tendencies, particularly her recent violation of the Nigerian Senate Rules. In a press statement made available to journalists in Abuja, the group’s national coordinator, Comrade James Okoronkwo, stated that Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan, as a rookie senator, has been fairly treated, having been given the chairmanship of two Senate committees. According to the group, Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan’s “recent vituperations over sitting arrangement is un-parliamentary, disrespectful, crude and selfish and most importantly breaches the Nigerian Senate Standing Orders.” The group commended Senate President, His Excellency Barr Goodwill Akpabio, for his inclusive and transparent leadership, noting that he has been fair and equitable to the female gender and should be lauded, not vilified. The group’s statement highlights the importance of upholding the Nigerian Senate Rules and maintaining a respectful and parliamentary demeanor. By condemning Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan’s actions and commending Senate President Akpabio’s leadership, the Coalition of Civil Society Groups aims to promote good governance, equity, and justice in Nigeria’s legislative processes.
