Nigerians Are Angry, See What Happens Between Akpabio vs Natasha today
But it was a little too late-Monguno’s Orders had already been sustained -and Akpabio was not willing to hear what Natasha had to say from the seat that had been taken from her.

Today’s plenary at the Senate was marred by a rowdy session, as the President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio orders Sergeants -at-arms to throw Senator Natasha Uduaghan , representing Kogi Central, out of the chamber.
Ohibaba.com learned that the trouble started afterthe Chief Whip, Mohammed Monguno informed Akpabio about Senator Natasha’s refusal to relocate to a new seat allocated to her to properly fill the space created by the defection of two senators from the opposition to the ruling All Progressives Congress in the chamber. Citing orders 24 and 6,
Monguno emphasized his power and those of the President of the Senate on matters such as this -and concluded that it is within the discretion of the Senate President to change senators’ seats as the situation may warrant.
Monguno asserted that a senator can only speak from the seat allocated to him or her , stressing that the Senate President can then go ahead to exercise his power not to allow a senator contribute to any matter from a seat not allocated to him or her.
Almost instantly, Natasha sprung up, trying frantically to come on Order 10-suggesting that her privileges had been breached.
But it was a little too late-Monguno’s Orders had already been sustained -and Akpabio was not willing to hear what Natasha had to say from the seat that had been taken from her.
Akpabio immediately ordered the Sergeants-at-arms to evict Natasha out of the chamber as the senator from Kogi Central continued to protest loudly -still unwilling to let go her seat or leave the chamber.
By this time-, Sergeants -at -arms had taken position , ready to escort Natasha out before a few senators including Natasha’s next door neighbor, Senator Austin Akobundu stopped them.
Down the chamber, another emissaries of peace had quickly approached Akpabio to appeal to him.
Their intervention somehow managed to doused all of the tensions , leaving Natasha occupying her seat and staying put in the chamber.

Other key decisions taken at the end of the workshop include:
Media organizations should organise trainings for their newsroom managers and line editors on fact-checking.
The Guild should set up disinformation counter groups across its zonal structures, ahead of the 2027 general election.
Media organizations should collaborate and reach out to each other to verify information.
Media organisations should look at the quality of their Online Editors to ensure that experienced and well-grounded journalists man the position.
The Guild should use other of its bigger platforms to address issues bordering on fake news, misinformation and disinformation.
During the workshop, the European Union Ambassador to Nigeria and ECOWAS, Mr Gautier Mignot and the NGE President, Mr. Eze Anaba, said that newsroom managers should acquire the skills and tools for fact-checking as a way to arrest fake news, misinformation and disinformation.
