In a country where drama is national currency and power plays double as primetime entertainment, two women named Natasha have somehow seized the spotlight and refused to blink. One is waging war in the hallowed chambers of the Senate. The other? Dancing to love songs, possibly composed just for her.
Let’s start in Abuja, where Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, representing Kogi Central, has found herself in a political thunderstorm after accusing Senate President Godswill Akpabio of sexual harassment. According to her, rejecting his advances brought not just disdain but a six-month suspension for “gross misconduct.”
Yet, this isn’t Natasha’s first rodeo. She’s taken on governors, questioned the status quo, and branded herself a political disruptor. Some call her fearless. Others whisper “attention-seeking.” Either way, she’s on every front page and every feminist tweet thread.
Meanwhile, miles away from political firestorms, another Natasha, Hon. Natasha Osawaru, is trending for something far more romantic. The Edo lawmaker, recently unseated as Deputy Majority Leader, is allegedly entangled with music legend 2Baba. Lovebirds? Maybe. Trouble? Definitely.
