A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Monday Ubani says Senate President, Godswill Akpabio has not stepped aside from his position while investigation into the sexual allegations leveled against was going on because the acc, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan did not supply any evidence to back up her claim.

Ubani, who is a Special Adviser to the Senate President said he would have personally advised Akpabio to step aside while the investigation is ongoing if Natasha had presented any evidence against him.

He argued that in civilised nations like United Kingdom or United States, public officers usually step aside for proper investigation if there are evidences against them.

“My take is that in nations like United States and United Kingdom, if such an allegation is made against any public officer, they normally want to allow proper investigation to be done which is what the senate is trying to do in this circumstances. But there must be evidence. I’m also curious to look at the evidence that the person who has alleged this sexual harassment has presented”.

According Ubani, despite making two allegations against Akpabio, Natasha did not provide a single evidence to back up her claim.

There are two things she has said, which if there are sufficient evidence, I will be one of the person that will advise Senator Godswill Akpabio to step aside”.

“The first allegation is that on 8th of December, in the home of Senator Akpabio in Uyo, she was with her husband and the senator took them to all the rooms and then said ‘do you like my house?’ I will like for you to come back here to make me happy, you know I am a presiding officer’.

“The second one is when she did not wear her wedding ring and the man saw that and said ‘is this an invitation to treat?’. According to her, those things were said in the presence of senators”.

“As I speak to you, there is no single witness that has been named . There is no single exhibit, there is no single text message. There is no single evidence in the ing affidavit. All the allegations she made were all verbal”.

“Also, there was no witness. She didn’t tell her husband all these things until 2025 when her seat was re-allocated”.

I am not in of any politician but, how can we act on just mere say without evidence? Even a primary school boy in Nigeria today knows any accusation must come with evidence…

In the United States, Monica Lewinsky had to produce evidence against Clinton before the case was upheld.

Natasha goofed. Madam no evidence.

This case on frontpage again?

Natasha, who is a Muslim is ways adjusting her scarf in Public. Is it that she can't tie her scarf well or wear proper hijab? Or is she looking for toasters?
I never noticed Turai Yar'Adua adjusting her scarf at any point in public

When you politicians don't have shame. Even Ganduje with Dollar babanriga evidence, gets rewarded with 2nd term and now party chairman.
You can never shame the shameless.

Ubani doesn't know what he is saying. With or without evidence, Akpabio should have stepped down as SP. SP should live above board.

Abi ooo, when every Gigolo in the house blocking every move for her to bring the issue to the table, from order 10, to suspension to recalling, to court, to numerous online attack, and uncountable distractions.


FOR THE MAIN ISSUE, NO WAY!

The best senator in a year, is being recalled in the next few months after the award, because of allegation she tenders against 3rd man in the nation, while the allegedly sinner is being celebrated up and down, the "allegedly" abused is receiving lashes from authority ,.......TO MAKE THE MATTER WORST, THE MASSES TOO STAND GIDIGBA WITH OPPRESSORS. Haaaaaa!
This country get k-leg oooo.

Naija, a nation of abnormal people.

I don't like Apkabio for his reckless talk. However Natasha isn't smart enough to get evidence to back up her allegations. Saraki didn't step down too when he was accused of sponsoring a bloody bank robbery at offa because there was no convincingly proofs. Natasha game plan failed her this time around. That trick don cast. She should spend her suspension reflecting on her character.

Some Nigerians are quite dumb, someone comes from no place n makes accusations with no evidence and they say.... Hw did it
Even when people there corroborate Akpabios statement that the woman and husband did not the tour...

That's how low these people can go to make who they don't like fail... Headless mob.

Akpabio's wife is Igbo and Akwa ibomites hate him now because he has more igbo people around him than Akwa ibomites, yet there are the say people dragging him even more than Benue people who are ready to recall the woman.. .

Hate is a terrible thing

Ubani himself has taken sides. If you want to be seen as independent, swallow your opinion and let the bellies of the lizard open its content.

You cannot trust any politician. Again, I repeat

YOU CANNOT TRUST ANY POLITICIAN.

So whether it's Mrs Akpoti-Uduaghan or Mr Akpabio, let them play all their cards first before speaking for anyone of them lest they make a fool out of you.

Imagine what IBB is saying today about Abacha. Maybe if Abacha were alive, he too would have said "Babangida would have handed over power of Abiola did ____". You can't speak for anyone Mr Ubani, you of all people should know better. Power is dangerous when they have it. You can only speak for yourself and what you will do if it's your turn. Obasanjo once said your job is to advise but I don't need to take your advice. Every SA should know this and know peace.
