Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, has filed a new N200 billion defamation lawsuit against Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, who represents Kogi Central, over alleged defamation.
Natasha, in a Facebook post on Friday, confirmed receiving notice of the suit.
She said the development offers her an opportunity to present her account after the Senate Committee on Ethics and Privileges previously declined to hear her complaint.
She alleged that the committee based its decision on an existing defamation case filed against her by Akpabio’s wife, which it said prevented it from addressing a matter already before the courts.
Natasha explained that she was unable to initiate her own legal action earlier because Senate rules required her to first appear before the Ethics Committee, the same committee that recommended her suspension.
She stated that the new lawsuit now provides a platform for her to outline her allegations of sexual harassment and the challenges she said she faced after declining the alleged advances.
She wrote, “Today being the 5th day of December, 2025, I’m in receipt of the newly instituted 200 billion naira suit against me by Senator Godswill Akpabio claiming defamation on sexual harassment.
“Now, I am glad that Sen. Akpabio has brought this up because the Senate Committee on Ethics and Privileges failed to grant me audience in this issue relying on the fact that Godswill Akpabio’s wife had instituted a defamatory case against me. Therefore they couldn’t attend to a matter already in court.
“Albeit, I couldn’t proceed to court because by senate rules, I must still present my case before the Ethics committee (same committee that recommended my illegal suspension).
“Alas, I now have a chance to prove how I was sexually harassed and how my refusal to give into his demands unleashed series of unprovoked and unprecedented attacks on my person. See you in court Godswill Akpabio.”
