Chairman of Human and Environmental Development Agenda (HEDA), Lanre Suraj, has said it is incumbent of the National Assembly to redeem its image in the sexual harassment allegation on the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, and Sen Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (Kogi Central) rather than wait for Nigerians to do that for it.
Also, former Deputy Minority Leader in the Senate, Olorunimbe Mamora, called for utmost caution and sensibility in handling the matter.
The Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF), on its part, urged the Federal Government to immediately institute an independent investigation into the allegation to save the country’s image.
However, Senate Deputy Chief Whip, Peter Nwebonyi, strongly disagreed with former Senate President, Bukola Saraki, over his call for an open and transparent investigation into the allegations. (Guardian)
