The Edo State House of Assembly on Tuesday summoned the member representing Egor Constituency, Hon. Natasha Irobosa must appear before her Ethics and Privileges Committee within one week.
According to the Assembly, the legislator is expected to defend herself against accusations of misconduct linked to a viral video circulating on social media.
During the plenary session, President Blessing Agbebaku said that Hon. Irobosa must explain why his recent conduct has brought the Assembly into disrepute.
He stated: “The Honorable Natasha Irobosa has been summoned to appear before the Ethics and Privileges Committee for her recent conduct that has become a trending topic online.

“This behavior ruins the image of the House and members are expected to behave with dignity.
“This House is made up of cerebral and educated people who have been repeatedly dragged into controversy by our colleague.
“She has been trending on social media and television for all the wrong reasons.”
Agbebaku added that the Assembly would not tolerate any action capable of undermining its integrity.
The Speaker directed the committee to conclude its investigation and present its findings within two weeks.
Honorable. Irobosa has been in the public spotlight in recent days after a video showing her in an altercation with her husband, Innocent Idibia, surfaced online.
