According to the Speaker, her conduct has become a source of embarrassment to the entire legislature.
“Hon. Natasha Irobosa has been summoned to appear before the Ethics and Privilege Committee of the Assembly due to her recent conduct which has been trending online,” Agbebaku said.
“This conduct drags the name of the House into the mud, and it is the responsibility of members to conduct themselves well.”
He added that the Assembly is made up of “cerebral minds” whose credibility has been unfairly questioned due to the controversy surrounding Irobosa.
The Speaker further stated that the committee is expected to investigate the matter immediately and present its findings to the House within two weeks.
Irobosa has been trending online in recent days after a video surfaced showing her in a heated altercation with her husband, Innocent Idibia. The video sparked widespread conversations and raised concerns about her public behaviour.
The Assembly says the invitation is necessary to restore dignity and maintain discipline among its members.
