There was mild drama at the Senate plenary as Senate President Godswill Akpabio and several lawmakers burst into laughter while he announced the birthday of his colleague, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.


The incident occurred during Tuesday’s session when Senator Akpabio formally notified the chamber that December 9 marked his birthday as well as that of Senator Natasha.

Despite the tension, the Senate proceeded with its routine acknowledgment of the birthdays, though the brief moment of amusement underscored the strained relationship between the two senators.
