Nollywood veteran Kate Henshaw has come out in strong support of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, praising her resilience in the face of an ongoing political battle with Senate President Godswill Akpabio.

The controversy started on February 20, 2025, after a heated dispute between Natasha and Akpabio over seating arrangements in the Senate. This clash led to Natasha being referred to the Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges, and Public Petitions for alleged disorderly conduct. However, Natasha quickly hit back, accusing Akpabio of targeting her after she rejected his alleged sexual advances, culminating in a formal sexual harassment petition submitted on March 5.

In an Instagram post, Kate Henshaw, an outspoken advocate for women’s rights, shared her admiration for Natasha, calling her her “Woman Crush Wednesday” (WCW). She condemned the societal norms that attempt to silence and disempower women, emphasizing the strength and legacy of women throughout history. “We are the offspring of countless women warriors!” Henshaw declared, urging women to remember their inherent strength.

Her powerful words have sparked renewed conversations on gender equality, women's leadership, and accountability in politics. As the Senate saga unfolds, Natasha's fight has become a rallying cry for many advocating for greater representation and justice for women in Nigerian politics.
