Nigerian women on Monday spoke out against the suspension of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan and the signatures to recall the Kogi Central representative.<\/p>\n
According to the women’s rights crusaders,<\/p>\n
“This is the example of tyranny, harsh and unfair decisions”<\/p>\n
They also asked President Bola Tinubu and Senator Godswill Akpabio to use their good offices to protect and defend the rights of women in Nigeria.<\/p>\n
“The suspension of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan disgusted many people. The dispute in the senate caused much doubt about the honesty of male politicians in the country”.<\/p>\n
The influential women reformers at a meeting to discuss the social, civil and religious conditions and rights of women in Nigeria urged the senate to lift the suspension of Akpoti-Uduaghan.<\/p>\n
‘It has been established that suspension and recall processes are not appropriate responses to disagreement concerning a senate president and a member of the senate.<\/p>\n
They called upon God to afflict people behind Akpoti-Uduaghan’s recall processes with madness and imbecility.<\/p>\n
Particularly, the women condemned the violation of Akpoti-Uduaghan’s rights and the treatment of women politicians as children and instruments of emotional satisfaction in the country’s politics.<\/p>\n
Chairperson of South-South Women Rights Movement, Mrs Alice Anene\u00a0 presented the stance of the women to local and foreign journalists.<\/p>\n
The highly intelligent and spirited women advised Akpabio to conduct himself honourably as Senate president.<\/p>\n
“Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan is a great fighter and remarkable public servant. She is also the most trusted and best informed person to ever represent Kogi Central”<\/p>\n
The crusaders of women rights who condemned the plot by desperate chieftains of the All Progressives Congress (APC) behind Akpoti-Uduaghan’s recall processes\u00a0emphasised.<\/p>\n
“They hired fake people and poured money into destroying Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan”<\/p>\n
The women argued that the recall process was not necessary because it might lead to more harm than good for women, Kogi Central and the nation’s democracy.<\/p>\n
“History is recited in favour of those who have won. But in this case, recall agitators and those behind the suspension of Akpoti-Uduaghan Uduaghan should be ashamed of themselves”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
