Legit reports that both gladiators, who used to be political allies, were meeting face-to-face for the first time since the 2023 presidential elections.

Reactions trail Akpabio’s response to Natasha
Earlier, Legit reported that Akpabio came under fire over the manner in which he corrected Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, the lawmaker representing Kogi Central senatorial district.
In a trending video, Senator Natasha was seen standing and speaking against the rejection of a bill by the red chamber. However, the senate president corrected her, saying, “in the chamber, you must be recognised before speaking; we are not in a nightclub.”
