PRESS RELEASE

RE: FALSE AND MALICIOUS ALLEGATIONS TARGETING THE PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE, HIS EXCELLENCY, SENATOR GODSWILL AKPABIO, GCON

The Office of the President of the Senate strongly condemns the recent baseless, false and inflammatory accusation made by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, in which she falsely alleged that the Senate President, His Excellency, Senator Godswill Akpabio, GCON, was involved in a plot to assassinate her.

While speaking in Kogi State on April 1, 2025, the suspended Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan recklessly and maliciously claimed that Senator Godswill Akpabio “recruited” former Governor Yahaya Bello to “assassinate her in Kogi State rather than in Abuja.” This outrageous accusation is not only false but a complete fabrication and deeply irresponsible and dangerous attempt to provoke public unrest, attract media attention, and discredit the person and office of the President of the Senate for ulterior motives.

It is important to remind the public that this same individual had previously made an unsubstantiated accusation of sexual harassment against Senator Akpabio—a claim she seem to have abandoned without explanation. Having failed to gain traction with that narrative, she has now escalated her campaign of misinformation to a deadly and defamatory dimension.

This pattern of deliberate falsehoods and manipulative theatrics reveals a troubling willingness to exploit public sensitivities through recurring victimhood narratives. It is a matter of public record that she has previously made assassination allegations against former Governor Yaya Bello and others in 2019 and 2023, along with multiple unsubstantiated claims of sexual harassment against other dignitaries. Her recurring persecution narrative and evident lying complex should not be weaponized to malign individuals or destroy hard-earned reputations.

Interestingly, this latest reckless allegation is not occurring in isolation.

Barely 24 hours later, on April 2, 2025, former Senator Elisha Abbo appeared on Arise Television to revive a previously withdrawn claim that Senator Akpabio “manipulated the judiciary” to secure his removal from the Senate. Nigerians will recall that Mr. Abbo, in 2023, publicly retracted this same accusation and tendered an apology after acknowledging that his claims were founded on incorrect assumptions. His removal from office was the outcome of a constitutionally grounded judicial decision by the Court of Appeal, which independently determined that he was not duly elected to represent Adamawa North.

In a further twist, Mr. Abbo also alleged that he was denied his entitlements by the Senate President. This, too, is categorically false. Entitlements such as salaries and allowances are processed strictly through istrative and legal procedures. The Senate President does not and cannot unilaterally approve or deny such requests. Any delays or rejections would have been based solely on due diligence and compliance with established protocols.

The timing, tone, and striking similarity of these coordinated attacks point clearly to a politically motivated smear campaign. These individuals—backed by undisclosed interests—appear united in a desperate effort to undermine the credibility of the Senate and its leadership and intended to distract from their own personal and political shortcomings and failings.
Senator Godswill Akpabio remains undeterred. As a statesman devoted to national unity, institutional integrity, and the rule of law, he will not be distracted by malicious falsehoods or inflammatory rhetoric.

Regardless of the necessity for legal redress, formal letters of demand, seeking immediate public retractions, apologies, and compensation for reputational harm, are underway to be served on both Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan and Mr Elisha Abbo.

We call on the Nigerian public in particular and the International Community to reject these baseless and provocative narratives. The Senate, under Senator Akpabio’s leadership, remains focused on its constitutional mandate: to promote legislative excellence, safeguard democratic values, and deliver meaningful progress for the Nigerian people.

I see vultures gathering against apkabio the senate president.

The battle against senate president is only using senator Natasha as front, apkabio may not last long as senate president.

Valueless people trying very hard to get Media attention by using WIKE or apkabio name

Let's see who will apologize and compensate. Abi she don say make u sue her for death threat if I can. My advice for Akpabio, make he call Natasha husband aside make he help am beg Natasha, say him go do whatever she want, or else, he might likely loose the post of that senate president o

Akpabio has not answered the simple question
You wan yansh am abi you no wan yansh am

Ekuke

But I thought all parties had been warned not to make public statements on this issue.

Akpabio the CHAPEL ambassador!!!

We the NATASHANS will forces with Natasha and ensure your Randy ways at your compound CHAPEL be exposed............He tried all he could to silent Natasha. He pushed for her recall but it never see the light of the day.......Akpabio almost wanted to break the record of Baltasar Engonga Ebanga in Nigerian government.......Too Randy.

He tried it with Madam Nunieh, he chop slap!!
He tried it with Natasha, Now Natasha hooked him in the Neck like a Bonga fishbone..........

Akpabio will never look twice at a fairskinned lady let alone iring the soft waist whenever he sight one........He has been chopping other gullible ladies but Natasha is like an Electric Fish that would electrocute you almost you make any Randy move...........She fine no mean say she dey Loose.

They set trap for her and she fly over dem like drone............Davido's track over dem comes to mind.

Natasha should compensate you with what....... Do you ought to ask for any compensation? Won pe e ni ole, o ngbe omo eran jo

When will people begin to realize that these politicians are distracting us?

When will the investigation of the senate committee begin

Ogbeni Akpabo, you withdrew her security details na.
For which there was no need to ( but out of spite) so, whatever it is, there is a drop of truth in her allegation.

As for Ababio... That's between you and him.

As for Yahoo Bello, I know he's looking to dodge efcc & will thus do shitty things to be protected e.g attacking fine madam.

As for Governor Dodo. That one no too get sense, as his name implies, hence he will take orders from Yahoo bello, and display foolishness as he did by banning rallies.


Just sue and get it over with.

Emafejopami.

ODE AKPABIO IF DEM BORN YOU WELL SUE NATASHA TO COURT ......NA WETIN WE WANT SO THAT SHE CAN REVEAL ALL YOUR SECRETS
