Kennedy Ahanotu, the National Youth Leader of the Labour Party, has called for the suspension and recall of Senator Neda Imasuen, who represents Edo South, due to his controversial handling of the suspension of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan. Speaking at a press briefing in Abuja, Ahanotu accused Senator Imasuen, who leads the Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Public Petitions, of rushing the investigation and violating a court order in a manner that felt unjust and bias. Stating that the Labour Party strongly supports gender equality, fair hearing, and the rule of law, the youth leader criticized the Senate for moving with unusual speed against Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan while ignoring pressing national issues like security and electoral reforms. Consequently, the party demanded that the Senate immediately lift Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan
