The Nasarawa State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has condemned the video clip of its Senator-elect, Godiya Akwashiki being beaten and stripped naked for alleged adultery.
In a statement signed by the state Chairman of the party, Mr. Philips Tatari Shekwo, which was made available to the Next Edition, the party said; “We condemn in the strongest terms this barbaric act.
