<p>Senate President Godswill Akpabio has firmly denied allegations of sexual harassment leveled against him by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.</p>
<p>The accusations stem from an alleged incident during a visit to Akpabio’s country home in Akwa Ibom State.</p>
<p>Breaking his silence during a plenary session on Wednesday, Akpabio categorically refuted the claims, asserting that he has never harassed Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan or any other woman.</p><div class="Ww0JzoZH" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>At no time did I ever harass any woman. I was raised very well by my late single mother, and I have always upheld respect for women. I was even awarded the most gender-friendly governor in Nigeria,” Akpabio stated.</p>

<p>He further mentioned that he has four daughters and would never engage in inappropriate conduct against women.</p>
<p>Expressing gratitude to his colleagues for their support and prayers, Akpabio remained confident that divine intervention would vindicate him.</p>
<p>The controversy between Akpabio and Akpoti-Uduaghan surfaced following the latter’s suspension over a seating arrangement dispute.</p>
<p>The disagreement escalated into a heated exchange when the Kogi Central senator discovered her seat had been changed without her consent.</p>
<p>During a recent television interview, Akpoti-Uduaghan alleged that Akpabio was punishing her for rejecting his advances.</p>
<p>She claimed that while giving her a tour of his residence, Akpabio had suggested they could “spend quality time together” and that she would “enjoy it.”</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p>As the allegations continue to generate public debate, the Senate remains divided over the matter, with some lawmakers rallying behind Akpabio while others call for a thorough investigation.</p>
