The President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio has denied reports that he has created an office for his wife, Mrs Unoma Akpabio, in the National Assembly.
Akpabio, in a statement through his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr. Eseme Eyiboh on Monday, said the story was designed to malign and disparage the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio.
“A story of 20 paragraphs on the creation of an imaginary office for the wife of the Senate President uses three paragraphs on the unfounded issue.
“And the remaining 17 paragraphs were used for recitation of unrelated fables and other innuendo.
“For emphasis to the unguarded who may be prone to the fake news merchandise, Mrs Ekaette Unoma Akpabio has no office in the National Assembly and there is no intention towards that.
“Her only relationship with the National Assembly is that her husband is the President of the Senate and by virtue of that, as with his predecessors, she is president of the Senators’ Wives Association of Nigeria,” Eyiboh said.
