Speaking about the Senate President at some point during the interview, she said that, “If Senator Akpabio was to be here, I would say to him that you have conducted yourself irresponsibly. There have been a series of clampdowns that Senator Natasha felt. She felt that she increasingly was finding a very narrow space to express herself. We detest the fact that there is a gang up to frustrate and to take her voice.
Regarding Nigerian politicians, the advocate for transparency, accountability, good governance, and human capital development stated that, “so we now have what I frankly call a criminal enterprise gang. Politicians are the criminals. We need to admit it. They began to look at the rest of the society as a bunch of stupid people who cannot do anything. The only thing that drives them is to access power just for the sake of power.
