There was a heated exchange at the Senate Ethics Committee hearing on Tuesday when Senator Onyekachi Nwaebonyi of Ebonyi North clashed with former Minister of Solid Minerals, Oby Ezekwesili, over an ongoing investigation into sexual harassment allegations leveled against Senate President, Godswill Akpabio by Suspended Senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.
In a viral video from the hearing, Nwaebonyi was heard calling Ezekwesili “a fool” and “a disgrace to womanhood.”
The confrontation took place as the committee reviewed claims that Akpabio had allegedly harassed Akpoti-Uduaghan and abused his office.
The controversy began after Akpoti-Uduaghan accused the Senate President of inappropriate conduct and raised concerns about a dispute over seat arrangements in the Senate chamber.
The Senate found her guilty of misconduct and handed her a six-month suspension.
The likes of Senator Nwaebonyi is not supposed to answer senator he is a total disgrace to that name senator & they are people that cause confusion in the senate
it’s obvious we no longer have leaders in this country. it’s only God’s intervention that can salvage Nigeria from this mess.
We as a country Nigeria should just remember that the world are watching,all this confusion, harassments should treat with caution.The three arms of government have to apply more wisdom inorder to settle this matter technically,it is not about who wins and whose guilty but about the future of Nigeria and it’s democratic system of governance
