Speaker Blessing Agbebaku said the committee is expected to probe her conduct, which he noted has brought the Assembly “into disrepute”.
According to him, the House cannot overlook actions that portray its members negatively.

“This House has cerebral minds, educated people who have been dragged in the mud for too long by our colleague, Hon. Natasha. She has been trending on social media and television for the wrong reason.
“The house has members who know what they are doing, and the attitude of our member has brought this house into disrepute, and we will not tolerate it,” he said.
The committee is expected to submit its findings within two weeks.
Natasha has recently been in the spotlight after a video showing an altercation between her and her husband, music star Innocent “2Baba” Idibia, surfaced on social media.
