Senate President Godswill Akpabio has denied allegations circulating on social media about distributing $15,000 to senators to secure their support for a state of emergency declaration in Rivers State.
The accusations claimed that Akpabio handed out money during a fast-breaking event at his Maitama residence.
The rumours said that the disbursement happened over two days, with $5,000 given on a Tuesday and an additional $10,000 the following day, just before the vote on the emergency declaration.
