Natasha’s Suspension: ‘Nobody’ll Support You for Whistleblowing in Senate’ – Shehu Sani 

A former Senator representing Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani has revealed that Senators who blow the whistle on wrongdoing in the Senate will not get any support from colleagues.

This comes following Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan’s suspension by the Senate on Thursday amid her allegations of sexual harassment against Senate President Godswill Akpabio.

Reacting to the development, Sani, in a post on X (formerly Twitter) recounted his experience while in the Senate, stating that you are ‘on your own’ if you blow the whistle excessively.

He wrote: “When I publicly disclosed the salaries and allowances of the Senators, it nearly earned me a six months suspension if not for divine intervention, Saraki and Ekwerenmadu’s immediate rescue.

“Just know that if you are there and you blow whistle too loudly, you will be ‘On your Own’, no Senator go bring him head or neck to support you.”
