•Umma Getso
The 2019 vice presidential candidate of the Young Progressives Party (YPP), Umma Getso, says some women in politics falsely accuse men of sexual harassment for political interest.
The activist was a guest on Channels Television today.
Getso demanded justice in the case between Kogi Central Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan and Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
She said, “Let there be justice. Let women be treated right wherever they are but I am very sorry to say this to a lot of women: I’ve worked with a lot of men, national and internationally, different caliber.
“When I hear women say I am sexually harassed, there is a lot of definition to that or we need to redefine what sexual harassment is.
“We have seen it in a lot of places in the world, not only in Nigeria, whereby women took advantage of them being women and raise such kind of accusation for other personal interest.
“If a lady sitting in the Senate, being in that position, is now crying of being sexually harassed by a man. I know a lot of men that are allowing their women to come into the political game will be a little bit scared.”
