th 35 3

A mild drama ensued in the Senate Tuesday, October 14, after Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan called for an amendment of a motion that considered the abuse of the rights of Nigerian immigrants in Libya.

The Senate had a robust debate on the motion earlier. During the deliberation, Senator Natasha called on the Senate to look into the plights of Nigerian women in Libyan prisons. She stated that Nigerian women who were incarcerated in Libyan prison had been converted to s#x slaves solely to satisfy the orgies of the prison warders. She said that many of the female prisoners now have children they are taking care of in prison.

She called on the red chambers to mandate the Immigration service to liaise with the Libyan authorities to have such women repatriated.

After making her input, the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, called for any of her colleagues to second her motion. None of them including the female senators stood up to second her motion.
