The lawmaker representing Edo North Senatorial District, Adams Oshiomhole, has denied alleging that signatures of lawmakers were forged in the report recommending the suspension of Kogi Central Senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.
This was contained in a statement he issued on Tuesday, noting that his remarks during an interview on AIT were misrepresented.
Oshiomhole clarified that he never claimed senators’ signatures were forged.
He explained that he had only raised the issue that a senator who served on the committee had alleged that attendance signatures of some lawmakers were attached to the final report.
Recall that the Nigerian Senate had earlier denied Oshiomhole’s allegations in the Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan matter, saying it would look into the issue and take a position.
According to Oshiomhole, “The insinuation that I said signatures of Senators were forged is a complete misrepresentation of what I actually said.
“The only comment I made is that one Senator, who is a member of the Committee, claimed that the signatures of attendance of some Senators were attached to the final report.”
