Chief Emmanuel Uduaghan, husband of Sen. Akpoti-Uduaghan has called on the Senate President, Senator Godswill Akpabio, to treat his wife with the respect and dignity that she deserves.
Uduaghan who is also the Alema of Warri Kingdom in a press release on Saturday noted that although he had initially refrained from commenting, he has become compelled by recent developments to speak out.
He revealed although both parties had agreed to resolve the issue amicably after he personally met with Akpabio, however, despite the agreement, “My wife continues to express concerns about the harassment she has endured from the Senate President,” he said.
Describing her as a devoted wife and a person of integrity, Uduaghan disclosed that Natasha had confided in him about her interactions with Akpabio, whom he regarded as a family friend. In response, he said he approached the matter with maturity and diplomacy, seeking to foster peace.
“I would never trade her for anything, as she is the greatest joy of my life,” he declared, emphasising that the dispute was distracting from more pressing issues.
He stressed that Natasha was duly elected by the people of Kogi Central Senatorial District, who have unwavering confidence in her ability to deliver quality representation.
Uduaghan therefore called on the Senate and Akpabio to uphold respect while awaiting legal resolutions on the matter.
