Natasha’s Beauty Is A Problem For Her – Ex-Minister Ogunlewe
Former Minister of Works, Senator Adeseye Ogunlewe, has suggested that the beauty of suspended senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, could be a hindrance to her political career.
Ogunlewe claimed that Natasha’s appearance makes it difficult for men to ignore her.
The erstwhile minister stated this on Monday while feilding questions on Arise News TV.
Ogunlewe acknowledged that female senators are increasingly confident and assertive in political debates, refusing to view themselves as inferior to their male counterparts.
However, he pointed out that Akpoti-Uduaghan’s physical attractiveness may impact how male colleagues perceive and react to her in the political arena.
Ogunlewe said: “The female senators did not look at themselves as if they were inferior to men. They were even up to the task. If you even mention that Ita-Giwa is a woman, the response you are going to get will make you ashamed of yourself because they will stand up to you.
“But the beauty of Senator Natasha is a problem to her.
“You know, men — when somebody who is pretty passes by you, your attitude will change. You can smile, you can wink, but you may not talk to her. But her beauty is a problem, there’s no doubt about that.
“To men, when she’s passing, there’s no way a man will not look at that woman.
“It is a natural thing for a man to look at beautiful women. How can you be a man, and a beautiful woman is passing, and you close your eyes?”
