Senator Adams Oshiomhole, who represents Edo North Senatorial District, has raised concerns over the authenticity of signatures attached to the Senate committee report that led to the suspension of Kogi Central lawmaker, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.
In a recent interview with AIT, Oshiomhole alleged that the names of at least three senators were included in the report despite their claims that they neither signed nor endorsed the document.
Oshiomole said this while reacting to recent comments by Senate Leader, Senator Opeyemi Bamidele, who described Akpoti-Uduaghan’s suspension as one of the most regrettable episodes of the current Senate.

According to Oshiomhole, some lawmakers whose names appeared on the committee report later informed him that they did not append their signatures to the document.

He specifically mentioned Senator Ireti Kingibe of the Federal Capital Territory, saying she expressed surprise after discovering that her name had been listed among those who endorsed the report.
Oshiomhole argued that attaching lawmakers’ names to a report without their consent would amount to a violation of parliamentary procedure, noting that committee members are only expected to sign reports they agree with.
