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.
She’s not a fool but u are the one is a big fool,abakilik man like u,mugu
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
You’ve spoken intelligently, learn to get fact about every matter before jumping at the comment section.
it’s obvious we no longer have leaders in this country. it’s only God’s intervention that can salvage Nigeria from this mess.
let all Nigeria ethnic groups know and understand that right leader’s only come from people that understand the doctrine of the resurrected Christ or else Nigeria shall always face misrulership.
I don’t know why our leaders are not showing us good example, they’re always disgracing their selves everywhere, every power behind all this be destroyed, what is all this? May the peace of God restore back in country.
Uncouth accidental senator
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
It’s quite unfortunate that we elected hoodlums as our reps in the senate. These attitudes explained how they got into that senate abinitio. Nwaebonyi has been on the forefront of the issue between the senate president and the Sen. Natasha.
How can you be crying more than the bereaved. Shame on you all.
See how she intelligently set him up and and he’s busy ranting like a demented snake.
What a shame!✍️
My brother don chop bribe.
I weep for my dear country Nigeria!
This oby is a troublesome woman
What a mess , it seems the senate president is not free of the crime he is being accused of . If this senator can react the way he did , because I believe he is standing for the SP. Shameful act
This is democracy in action taken too far.
How can we believe Natasha’s allegations.
Unti abreastment of the Igbos are totally considered in government of the day b4 all things will change
