Wednesday, October 15, 2025 - A mild drama ensued in the Senate today October 14, after Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan called for an amendment of a motion that considered the abuse of the rights of Nigerian immigrants in Libya.
The Senate had a robust debate on the motion earlier today.
During the deliberation, Senator Natasha called on the Senate to look into the
plights of Nigerian women in Libyan prisons. She stated that Nigerian women who
are incarcerated in Libyan prison have been converted to s#x slaves solely to
satisfy the orgies of the prison warders. She said that many of the female
prisoners now have children they are taking care of in prison.
She called on the red chambers to mandate the Immigration
service to liaise with the Libyan authorities to have such women repatriated.
After making her input, the Senate President, Godswill
Akpabio, called for any of her colleagues to second her motion. None of them
including the female senators stood up to second her motion. The awkwardness
lingered for a moment until the Senate leader, Opeyemi Bamidele, stood up to
save the day.
