Senate President Godswill Akpabio has threatened to sue a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Lagos state, Adetokunbo Pearse, over what he described as false and defamatory statements made against him during a live broadcast on Arise Television.
Recall that during his appearance on Arise TV, Pearse made unsubstantiated allegations of corruption, manipulation, and criminality against the Senate President, questioning “If we have more women in the National Assembly and we have a Senate President like Akpabio, what is the point?
“The National Assembly we have now is a rubber-stamp assembly. Any president who wants to manipulate it can do so. And this one is actually manipulating it to the detriment of progress for Nigerians.
