Former Edo State Governor and Senator representing Edo North, Adams Oshiomhole, has described the suspension of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan from the Senate as one of the lowest points in the upper legislative chamber in the last three years.

Oshiomhole made the remark while reacting to comments credited to Senate Leader Opeyemi Bamidele, who reportedly described the suspension episode as a major low in the Senate’s recent history.

According to Oshiomhole, concerns have also been raised over the authenticity of the process that led to the suspension, alleging that some signatures on the relevant document were reportedly forged. He cited claims that Senator Ireti Kingibe and others disputed their alleged endorsements.

The former APC national chairman said such allegations, if proven true, raise serious questions about the integrity of the process and the internal procedures of the Senate.

The suspension of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has continued to generate controversy within political and legislative circles, with differing interpretations of the circumstances surrounding the decision.

While some lawmakers have defended the action as being in line with Senate rules, others have called for a review of the process, insisting that due process and transparency must be upheld in parliamentary proceedings.

The matter has further fueled debates on legislative discipline, internal democracy, and the credibility of decisions taken within the National Assembly.
