We are all created differently by God. Some people are strong by nature. Others are gentle, kind, forgiving, humble, simple, compassionate, and accessible. These virtues are gifts from God, not weaknesses. But it is dangerous and deeply wicked when people repeatedly take advantage of such goodness without restraint, without repentance, and without conscience.
From my independent research and careful observations, this is sadly the pattern I have witnessed in the continued actions against the Senate President, Dr. Godswill Obot Akpabio.
Let the record be clear once and for all! When Natasha Akpoti personally called me to join her gender and media weaponization against a man I have never met, never encountered, and never had any personal dealings with, I boldly, bluntly, and unequivocally refused. I refused because I will not lend my voice, my unique energy, my integrity, or my platform to a wicked, evil, cruel, demonic, hearbreaking, orchestrated plot designed to destroy an innocent man and his family.
What made me vow to see this matter to the very end especially the allegations of human organ harvesting, murder, and organ trafficking was not sentiment. It was Natasha Akpoti’s persistent, unrepentant, and public humiliation of a man and his family who did nothing but good to her and her newest husband, Emmanuel Uduaghan.
I watched in shock and deep disappointment as a man who chose forgiveness over retaliation, mercy over vengeance, and silence over abuse was rewarded with more insults, bullying, hatred, and calculated humiliation. A man who willingly forgave Senator Natasha Akpoti- UDUAGHAN and others for their unwarranted accusations, insults, and pain inflicted on him and his family. Yet even after forgiveness, they continued.
This same man has forgiven others in the past who hurt him deeply. Rachel Kufre Nse is a documented example. She hurt the Senate President in the past, yet he forgave her and even empowered her. Her open confession and apology are public records. Let us be honest with ourselves. Not all of us are built like the Senate President.
Not all of us have that depth of forgiveness.
And the critical question remains, for how long will a repeatedly forgiving and kindhearted man be falsely accused while society looks away and refuses to acknowledge his innocence? Not again will all of us allow this to continue! It is Dr. Akpabio today, it may be you or a member of your family tomorrow. I will personally fight this heartbreaking matter to the end!
No, I am not Senator Akpabio. But I have lived through similar experiences multiple times.
And in this particular case of organ harvesting allegations, where I am directly involved as an independent petitioner, we must remember one undeniable truth that crimes against humanity are crimes against all of us.
Repeated offenders must not be protected by silence, sentiment, or political convenience. Justice must be firm, visible, and decisive. Sometimes, accountability through prosecution is necessary not out of hatred, but as a deterrent to protect society from future abuses. Enough is enough!!!
My late father once told me something I have never forgotten, he said, “extremely good people do not live long.” That was why he chose to be a moderately good man, and by God’s grace, he lived to 98 years (documented) and 103 years (undocumented).
Today, we pray for good health and longevity for President Ashiwaju, who has endured relentless false accusations and insults. We pray the same for the Senate President, a survivor of wickedness, betrayal, and calculated falsehoods. And yes, I pray for myself too, because I do not look like what I have been through at such my young age.
My beloved brothers and sisters, kindness is not consent to abuse. Forgiveness is not an invitation to wickedness. Silence is not guilt.
And goodness must never be weaponized against the good.
Enough is truly enough.
