Wife of the Senate President, Mrs. Ekaette Akpabio, has dismissed allegations of sexual harassment leveled against her husband, Senator Godswill Akpabio, by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (PDP, Kogi Central), describing them as false and unfounded.
Speaking to journalists on Friday, Mrs. Akpabio defended her husband’s character, stating that he is a disciplined and jovial man who respects women.

She also pointed out that she was present at their family residence on December 8, 2023, the alleged date of the incident while emphasising that their families have maintained a long-standing relationship, even before Senator Natasha’s marriage.
