The last may be heard soon about the sexual harassment saga between the suspended Senator representing Kogi Central Senatorial District, Senator Natasha Akpoti – Uduaghan, and President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, as unfolding revelations claimed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the target for a well planned earth-quaking punch.
According to a United States-based activist, Dr. Sandra Duru, also known as Professor Mgbeke, the hidden motive behind the sexual harassment allegation levelled against Senate President Godswill Akpabio by the embattled Senator Akpoti – Uduaghan is to force the Senate President to step down from his exalted office to pave way for a new leadership that would make the office of President hot for Tinubu. •Dr. Sandra Duru
Duru who alleged that Natasha made an offer of N200m to her as an incentive to bring up organ harvesting allegation against Akpabio, said she had submitted evidence of phone conversations between her and Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan to relevant authorities in the US and other parts of the world for forensic analysis.
The activist said Natasha wanted her to link Akpabio with the death of a young girl who died a few years ago when she( the suspected Senator) wasn’t making any headway with her sexual harassment allegation.
Duru also exposed call logs and conversations to debunk Natasha’s claim that she had never spoken to her before.
The activist cum journalist revealed this in her one hour – eight minutes Facebook live streaming conversation, where she also alleged that Natasha was out to destroy men, stressing that Senator Natasha had revealed she had no evidence of sexual harassment against Akpabio.
She called on international security agencies, which she had petitioned, the IPU and the Nigeria Police Force to probe Natasha’s allegations and what she claimed to know about the murder of Umoren, having kept mute for years before coming out to accuse Akpabio.
She revealed this on Thursday night while displaying call logs and messages sent to her Whatsapp by Natasha.
Duru claimed that during one of their conversations, Natasha revealed that she had been promised governorship of Kogi State or Minister of Petroleum Resources if she could accomplish the agenda of getting the Senate President out.
“One, there is no sexual harassment of any kind, two, there is no evidence of organ harvesting. I told Natasha, you are a pathological liar, you have disgraced us Nigerians. She said Nigerians were G and H – ‘Gullible and Hungry’ and you want to add to their problems?
“I told her to make peace with the Senate members but she insisted that they want to destroy Yoruba government, I don’t know she meant by that.
“A lawyer that is very lousy and careless in her utterances. Natasha is not teachable, Natasha lacks humility, Natasha lacks moral values, she does not care. If it doesn’t go Natasha’s way, you are her enemy. Natasha is on a mission to destroy men… I cannot watch her destroy our men, I cannot watch her destroy our sons, I cannot watch her destroy our girls who are following her blindly. She called Dr Oby Ezekwesili a useful idiot.
“The Nigerian Police should handle the case of Natasha and her false allegations. She said she wants to force the Senate President to step down so that they will have their way to remove what they call Yoruba government.
“Umoren died in 2021. Autopsy was done and there was no organ harvesting.
“I already wrote the international agencies about a senator that claimed to have known something about the murder of a young lady and she kept it to herself. She must explain what she knows about the death.
“She said the reason for the fight was not really about the Senate President but it is about the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, that they don’t want Yoruba government to go beyond four years. She said no sexual harassment evidence of any kind,” Duru said.
