Godswill Akpabio, the Senate President has reportedly withdrawn from the presidential panel due to the sexual harassment allegations made against him by the Kogi Central lawmaker, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.<\/p>\n

The withdrawal, which happened without any official explanation, has raised questions and an outrage widespread speculation.<\/p>\n

The President of Citizens Quest for Truth, Oby Ndukwe, revealed the development on Saturday, May 3, 2025, during a broadcast of Politics Today on Channels Television.<\/p>\n

According to sources , the panel was established by President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday, April 2, 2025.<\/p>\n

Vice President, Kashim Shettima was appointed to chair the panel, with additional members including National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, the Attorney General of the Federation, and representatives from Akpabio and Akpoti-Uduaghan.<\/a><\/p>\n

The panel was tasked with investigating the sexual harassment allegations, which had become a source of national controversy.<\/p>\n

Akpabio\u2019s sudden withdrawal has caused speculation regarding his reasons for stepping down. While no official statement has been released, sources suggest that the Senate President cited concerns over potential executive interference and raised doubts about the impartiality of the panel.<\/p>\n

The tensions between Akpabio and Akpoti-Uduaghan reached a boiling point following the accusations of s3xual harassment made by Akpoti-Uduaghan in February 2025.<\/p>\n

In response to the allegations, the Senate suspended Akpoti-Uduaghan on Thursday, March 6, 2025, pending the outcome of the investigation. Critics have described the suspension as a silencing tactic intended to suppress Akpoti-Uduaghan\u2019s voice.<\/p>\n

Irrespective of the suspension and the ongoing investigation, Akpoti-Uduaghan remains resolute. She has vowed to present evidence in court to support her claims of s3xual harassment, promising to fight for justice in the face of growing political tensions.<\/p>\n
