At least three separate groups staged demonstrations at the assembly entrance, expressing support for Akpabio leadership and endorsing the six-month suspension of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (Kogi Central).
The protesters accused Akpoti-Uduaghan of attempting to blackmail the Senate following her removal as chairperson of the Committee on Local Content. They voiced their approval of the disciplinary action taken against her, chanting slogans and displaying banners backing the Senate’s decision.
Security operatives were on the ground to monitor the situation as the demonstrations unfolded peacefully.
