In a dramatic turn of events, a court has issued an interim order restraining the Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges, and Public Petitions from proceeding with the planned suspension of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.
The Bureau Newspaper gathered that the Ethics Committee had been set to convene and recommend her indefinite suspension before the court’s intervention. However, the interim order has now put a temporary halt to the committee’s proceedings, pending further judicial review.
This development adds a new dimension to the ongoing controversy surrounding the senator, as legal proceedings are now expected to determine the next course of action.
