The Senator representing Kogi Central, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, brought the Senate plenary to a standstill on Thursday after discovering that her seat had been changed without her consent.
The session, presided over by Senate President Godswill Obot Akpabio, was already in progress when Chief Whip Senator Mohammed Ali Monguno raised a point of order, drawing attention to what he described as “Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan’s improper seating position.”
Before Monguno could conclude his point of order, Senator Natasha erupted in protest, engaging in a heated exchange. The Sergeant-at-Arms quickly intervened, attempting to escort her out of the chamber.
Despite efforts by the Senate President to restore order, the senator remained resolute, demanding an explanation for the change in her seating arrangement.
The disruption was eventually brought under control after the public address system was shut down, allowing proceedings to resume.
