Senator Natasha’s Suspension is Illogical and Condemnable

Image
  By Pelumi Olajengbesi, Esq. I woke up this morning with a heavy heart, thinking that the Nigerian people deserve leaders who embody honor, integrity, and moral responsibility. Sadly, such leadership seems increasingly elusive. Our leaders must understand that public office is a privilege—not a shield against scrutiny. In recent days, the National Assembly has been engulfed in a scandal of monumental proportions, implicating none other than the Senate’s top figure—the Senate President. A grave allegation of sexual harassment was brought against him by his female colleague, Senator Natasha. This is not merely a personal controversy; it is a national disgrace and an embarrassment to us all. The Senate President had referenced a nightclub while addressing Senator Natasha—a remark she found insulting—which ultimately prompted her to speak out about her ordeal in the hallowed chambers. Rather than addressing this serious allegation, the Senate, in a move witnessed by a global audience,...
