Oby Ezekwesili, former Minister of Education, has responded to the public apology from Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.
The suspended Senator representing Kogi Central had apologized to Ezekwesili on X for the insults she received from Senator Onyekachi Nwaebonyi of Ebonyi North while defending her on March 25.
In her response, Ezekwesili thanked Akpoti-Uduaghan for the thoughtful words, saying, “Very kind words, dear Senator Natasha Akpoti Uduaghan @NatashaAkpoti! However, to me, a torrent of insults from any source is a small price to pay in our determination to shape a better Nigeria.
“Our daughters and granddaughters must not inherit the battles and struggles we should have fought and won for them. An unjust society that silences women and the vulnerable can never truly become.
“We must all stand against that for Nigeria. We STAND ON.”
