Kogi Central Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan stated Tuesday that she can come home whenever she wants. She made it clear nobody would prevent her return. The senator talked about her heritage as she met with fans who came to see her at Okehi Local Government Area. She firmly told everyone she belongs there as the daughter of Jimoh Abdul Akpoti.
The Kogi government tried to block her visit by stopping all gatherings across the state. They claimed this ban protected public safety. Officials even halted fishing activities after saying two people died during fishing at Kasemiya, Katubo, and Umozu Ette locations in Kogi West. Police leaders asked her directly to cancel her planned gathering.
Local official Amoka Monday went further by creating a nighttime curfew throughout the Okehi area. Despite these many attempts to keep people away, large crowds showed up anyway to greet Senator Natasha when she arrived. Her supporters gathered by the hundreds to welcome her back home.
The senator recently faced punishment from her colleagues after fighting with Senate President Godswill Akpabio. She accused him of sexual harassment during their dispute. The Senate responded by removing her from participation for six months, calling her behavior misconduct during an official meeting.
