Senator Natasha Demands Live Broadcast of Senate Probe, Says Nigerians Deserve Transparency

Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, representing Kogi Central, has demanded that her probe proceedings at the Senate be broadcast live, stating that Nigerians have the right to witness the process.

Natasha, who was referred to the Senate’s Ethics and Disciplinary Committee after her clash with Senate President Godswill Akpabio over a seating arrangement, affirmed that she is ready to face the panel but will not allow the matter to be handled behind closed doors.

In a statement posted on her Facebook page on Thursday, she noted that she had so far refrained from speaking publicly on the issue and other Senate developments but had now decided to break her silence.

She called on Nigerians to follow the proceedings closely, stressing her commitment to ensuring full transparency.

She wrote, “Good morning courageous people of Kogi Central, Kogi State and Nigeria.

“This petition came to my notice a few hours ago.

“In as much as I have refrained from publicly speaking on the matter and a lot of occurrences at the Senate under Senate President Akpabio, it’s about time I break my silence.

“Arise News, set a date and I shall be in your studio in person. Spare no questions.

“And to Nigerians, please be sure to join the probe which I shall insist would be covered live.

“The next few days and weeks shall be interesting but will shape the standard and quality of Nigeria’s leadership.”
