The Special Adviser to the President of the Senate on Diaspora and NGOs, Dr Jibril Tafida, has denied speculations over the visit of Mrs Ekaette Akpabio, wife of the Senate President, to the Senate chamber.
He said the claim by an online publication that Mrs. Akpabio had an “unholy access” to the Senate chamber was false.
A statement signed by Tafida in Abuja on Saturday said Mrs Akpabio was in the National Assembly on a Saturday to see for herself some faulty equipment and facilities in the chamber.
Tafida explained that the visit was sequel to complaints by senators and staff about poor facilities and shoddy job done by contractors. He said it was at the instance of Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
