Senate President, Godswill Akpabio has issued a stern warning to critics against making uninformed comments on the affairs of the senate, urging the public to understand parliamentary rules before engaging in debates.

Akpabio gave the warning when he received a delegation from the Niger Delta Ethnic Nationalities Youth Leaders Forum in Abuja.

His warning came in the wake of the recent suspension of Kogi Senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan for violating Senate rules, a decision that Akpabio emphasised was unanimously supported by lawmakers.


The senate president, while expressing concern over the growing trend of uninformed commentaries on television and social media, said people who have no understanding of Senate procedures are the ones running commentaries on matters they know nothing about.

“You should seek the facts before making public statements. We advise members of the public to stop misquoting the rules of the Senate,” he said.

He also criticised those outside the legislature for attempting to interpret Senate procedures, likening it to a herbalist trying to quote the Bible or someone unfamiliar with Islamic teachings attempting to interpret the Qur’an.
