The Senate Ethics Committee has declined to entertain the petition on sexual harassment presented by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, citing procedural violations and existing legal constraints.
According to the Committee Chairman, Neda Imasuen, Senate Rule Book Order 40(4) explicitly states that a senator cannot submit a petition signed by themselves; instead, it must be presented by another senator. This fundamental rule rendered Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan’s petition inadmissible from the outset.
