Afrobeat artist, Seun Kuti, has picked a side in the ongoing sexual harassment saga involving the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, and the Senator representing Kogi Central Senatorial District, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.

Recall that Senator Akpoti alleged during a television interview that Senator Akpabio refused to take her motion for the Ajaokuta Steel Complex because she rejected his sexual advances.

The Kogi lawmaker has been facing heavy backlash since making the allegations, especially from her female colleagues in the Senate.

Reacting during a recent Instagram live session, Kuti declared his support for Akpoti-Uduaghan.

He berated Nigerian celebrities and feminists for not supporting the female lawmaker in her face-off with the Senate President as they did for Annie Idibia against 2Face in their divorce saga.

He said, “About the sexual harassment case in the senate, I stand with the Senator [Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan] 100 per cent.

“Because she isn’t even the first one to make such allegation [against the Senate President]. It’s appalling that all these so-called women activists are all quiet.

“They have something to say about Burna Boy’s alleged reneged promise to Sophia Egbueje but shy away from important matters…

“These kind of things cannot continue in this country. What that woman [Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan] is saying is very serious. And the celebrities will not come out to support her in this kind of matter, the way everybody had something to say to defend Annie against 2face.

“Many of these celebrities, especially Nollywood actors and actresses are benefiting from the government through fraudulent grants so they can never come out to speak on this kind of matter…. I can’t openly protest to demand justice for Natasha but I implore Nigerian women to support her.”
