26:26Now PlayingA former Publicity Secretary of the Nigeria Bar Association (NBA), Benin Branch, Douglas Ogbankwa, has faulted the suspension of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan by the Senate, describing it as a case of “double standards.”
Speaking on Channels Television’s breakfast programme The Morning Brief, Ogbankwa argued that the Senate acted improperly by suspending the lawmaker while her case was still before the court.
“One thing that is important is to follow the sequence of events. Both parties have been in arbitrance to the law one way or the other. While she was still in court, the Senate proceeded to pronounce the suspension on her. As far as I’m concerned, that is double standards,” he told the morning show crew on Wednesday.
Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan, who represents Kogi Central, was suspended for six months on March 6, 2025, after a heated confrontation in the chamber.
The Senate accused her of breaching its rules, but the lawmaker has since challenged the action in court, insisting her rights and those of her constituents were violated.
