Delta State women have issued a 14-day ultimatum to Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, to apologise over the Sen. Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan sexual harassment saga rocking the Senate, or they will storm the National Assembly complex in protest.
The women gave the ultimatum, under the platform of the Virtuous Women of Delta (VWD), in a statement issued, and signed by its Coordinator, Deaconess Eguolo Oghenekevwe.
Oghenekevwe said the women have watched how the Senate president has dragged the reputation of Sen. Akpoti-Uduaghan through the mud, an act she declared as traditionally sacrilegious, and attracts heavy sanctions.

“The fact that he walked out our wife from a public place alone, is enough for us to match to the National Assembly naked. If within the next 14 days, Sen. Akpabio fails to tender an unreserved apology, we may be forced to visit the National Assembly to register our anger.
“Sen. Akpabio had once used words that are unprintable in the first place, mentioning nightclub when he knows Sen. Natasha is married to a full -fledged Delta man.
“He apologized when he used such sacrilegious words like night club on our beloved wife. Our men are lions, they do not tolerate such desecration, particularly when a married woman is involved.
“We are politely asking the Senate president to apologize or face our wrath within the next 14 days, if an unreserved apology is not tendered.
“Sen. Akpabio is from our geopolitical zone, so he knows that our traditions, and culture cannot be swept under the carpet,” the women said.
