Forty-Eight hours after suspended Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, representing Kogi Central Senatorial District, told the Inter Parliamentary Union (IPU) in New York that she was suspended for raising issue of sexual harassment against President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, the Senate has passed a vote of confidence on Akpabio.

The lawmakers also urged Nigerians not to distract the Assembly with the issue of sexual harassment raised against Akpabio by Akpoti-Uduaghan as the matter is already in the court of law, which prevents the Senate based on order 40 of its standing rules, from dabbling into it.
