Video: Akpabio has withdrawn Senator Natasha's safety details to expose her to be killed, Senator Abbo says
ABBO spoke to Arise TV during an interview on Wednesday, accusing Akpabio of making a dangerous decision that jeopardizes Akpoti-Ouduaghan’s life. Former Adamawa North Senator Ishaku Elisha Abbo has claimed that Senate President Godswill Akpabio withdrew Senator Natasha Akpoti-Ouduaghan’s safety details to deliberately expose her to the risk of being killed. ABBO spoke to Arise TV during an interview on Wednesday, accusing Akpabio of making a dangerous decision that jeopardizes Akpoti-Ouduaghan’s life. “If you withdraw someone’s security, it means exposing the person to be killed,” Abbo said. “And I know the IG, you see the police are for all of us. No one wants the police. The IG realized that this is not a good thing to do. ” Abbo further explained that the decision is part of a broader, criminal action against Akpoti-Outuaghan. “Dispatched decisions. Even the ordered that the inspector general of the police should not provide her security. In another way, the exposure of her will be killed,” he added. He compared the situation to a previous case in the 8th Senate, when Akpabio himself had a serious oral exchange with former Senate President Bukola Saraki about a change in the Senate, but had no significant consequences. ‘In the 8th Senate I have the video and I can send it to you. Senate’s President Godswill Akpabio has a serious oral exchange with Senate President Bukola Saraki about a change in the Senate seat. He was not suspended. ‘ He was not investigated. The case was dealt with with adulthood, “Abbo said. Abbo also criticized the seriousness of Akpabio’s actions towards Akpoti-Outuaghan, which included suspending her for six months and having to withhold her salary.” In the case of Natasha, it took another dimension. He sat like the emperor who claimed to be and said the woman should be suspended for six months. “Withdraw her security, stop paying her salaries, and are not seen that the national meeting building closes, and even her assistants must also lose their salaries,” Abbo said. He also condemned the Senate’s disregard for a court order that prevented their investigation into Akpoti-Outuaghan and called it contempt of court. “Natasha went to court. And she got a court order in which the Senate did not investigate until the substantive matter was heard. The Senate went against the court’s judgment and suspended her,” Abbo said. In the end, Abbo expressed frustration with the handling of the judiciary’s case and accused the judge of not acting on the contempt of the Court of Akpabio. “It was after violating Natasha that they went to court to vacate the court order,” he said. “If they have obstructed the court after contempt, I am sorry to use this word – cowardly, judge them. Instead of arresting Akpabio for contempt of court, he withdrew his own ruling that they had broken. ‘ Abbo concluded by questioning why the judge withdrew himself from the case and further criticized the actions of the judiciary. “That’s the pleasure he was under. And instead of the judge going into the substantive matter, he withdrew himself, ‘he said. Meanwhile, Saharan Porters reported earlier that Senator Abbo Senator accused Akpabio of targeting the Nigerian Senate like a personal empire and targeting senators that oppose its view. Abbo further claimed that Akpabio has orchestrated the removal of five senators, including itself. Former Adamawa North Senator claimed that Akpabio informed him privately of the planned discharge. “He told me that five senators would be removed. I asked how he knows, and he said, ‘I am the president of the Senate. I know. “True to his words, five of us have been removed. “Akpabio withdrew Senator Natasha’s security details so that she could be killed,” said former senator abbo alleged pic.twitter.com/o9lr1hcjrd- Peter Obi Grassroots Mobilization.
