Nigerian legislators have stopped Senator for six months, a day after she filed a petition claiming to have been harassed sexually by the chairman of the Senate.
Natasha Akpoti-Udugan last Friday charged one of the best politicians in the country, Godswill Akpabio.
After rejecting her request for procedural reasons, the Ethics Committee recommended that the Udugan was stopped, saying she had made fun of the House.
Some senators claim that its suspension will be reduced to three months, but the majority votes to stick to six months of stopping recommended by the Ethics Committee.
Nearly a week from the Wandhagan interview with Ariise TV, where she first charges the issue, the issue dominates the discussions in Nigeria.
Very highly placed people and groups called for a transparent investigation.
On Wednesday, two groups of protesters gathered at the meeting in the capital, Abuzha – one supported Acpabio and the other in support of his colleague, chanting '' Acpabio must go. Sd
