I commend Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court, Abuja, for the courage in lifting the obnoxious suspension of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (Kogi Central). I also hail Sen. Akpoti-Uduaghan for challenging the illegality of her suspension by not sleeping on her rights in a chamber where women are already vulnerable. There's no price that is too great in asserting one's rights. -AA

This morning, I again remembered the all- time quote of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan:
*This Injustice shall not be sustained.*
I agree. Societies that have kept sustaining injustice are the ones that are stuck in lowest economic growth, pernicious poverty and widespread inequality. So, we should all not agree for the injustice being inflicted on Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan to be sustained.
Can the @NGRSenate and @Senator_Akpabio tell Nigerians why they have persisted in denying their courageous colleague, Senator @NatashaAkpoti, the right to fair hearing and impartial investigation of her Sexual Harassment petition against the Senate President?
Why is Senator Akpabio obstructing every opportunity for an impartial Senate inquiry into this matter? Why is he dodging the opportunity that can help him prove his innocence of the serious allegation leveled by his female colleague?
Why are Senator Akpabio’s colleagues in the Senate supporting such obstruction in gross violation of the same “Senate Rules” they used in illegally suspending Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan?
The Senate cannot pretend to be “moving on” regarding this case. Not at all.
This Injustice cannot be sustained at all.
There’s no “moving on” possible without accountability, transparency and due process on this case of massive abuse of power by our country’s #3 top ranking public figure.
Senator Natasha Akpoti Uduaghan is never walking alone on this case.
Never. ✍🏾✍🏾✍🏾
Last week, IOM conducted a two-day workshop on basic MHPSS for officials from the Ministry of Migration and Displacement in Ninewa, Iraq. The goal was to equip them with knowledge and skills for humane & improved return and reintegration assistance.
The sustainability of services across all locations is strongly impacted by the involvement & buy-in of local actors.
Today marks the last day of #IOM 🇮🇶 2-day workshop on sustainable MHPSS services in Ninewa, Iraq.
A society-driven approach ensures sustainability.
Community-driven programming empowers the community to take initiative.
Crises-affected women under the Integrated MHPSS and skills-based programme in Iraq continue to find strength in togetherness. With this, their recovery and reintegration become faster and more sustainable.

Earlier, I had the chance to be with the MHPSS team in Sinjar, Ninewa.
I was privileged to share moments with some beneficiaries of our services. Their experiences are very unique. Thankfully, IOM offers services as per the needs, aimed at promoting sustainable reintegration.
Across West Ninewa, 🇮🇶 IOM remains a 🔑 partner providing MHPSS services to vulnerable populations. With our MHPSS team in Sinuni, our goal is to support the Directorate of Health (DoH) to enhance access to MHPSS services for vulnerable populations.
