Eyewitnesses explained that the tension rose when Natasha was denied access to the office, which led to the heated argument involving members of staff and individuals in the Kogi senator’s entourage. During the argument, an aide to the senator was alleged to have assaulted a staff member in the committee chairman’s office, leading to the intervention of a security operative.
The situation came under control after the intervention of security operatives at the National Assembly, while details surrounding the altercation’s immediate trigger were yet to be cleared.
