Ezekwesili Explains Why She Clashed With Senator Nwebonyi
Former Education Minister Obiageli Ezekwesili has explained her heated exchange with Senator Onyekachi Nwebonyi during a Senate ethics committee hearing on sexual harassment allegations against Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
Ezekwesili accused the committee of complicating the process for petitioner Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan. She confronted Nwebonyi after he dismissed the petitioner’s team as unserious, telling him to “shut up.”
The altercation escalated, with Nwebonyi insulting Ezekwesili, calling her a “disgrace to womanhood.” Speaking on Arise TV, Ezekwesili defended her reaction, stating she opposed the unfair treatment of the petitioner.
