Police operatives have dispersed supporters of the lawmaker representing Kogi Central Senatorial District, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, from accessing the National Assembly Complex.
The protesters who converged at the Assembly gate were dispersed by police officers with tear gas to prevent breakdown of law and order.
The
protesters also demanded the immediate resignation of the Senate
President, Godswill Akpabio, over the alleged sexual harassment leveled
against him.
The Nation reported that protesters had converged
on the National Assembly gate as early as 8 am with the resumption of
plenary and hearing of the Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and
Public Petition scheduled for today.
