 Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan Defies Kogi Government's Ban, Receives Heroic Welcome


Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan was given a rousing homecoming by her supporters and residents of the Ihima community in Kogi State, despite the state government's ban on rallies and processions. The celebration, which kicked off as early as 8 a.m., saw supporters from the five local government areas of Kogi Central gather at the Ihima community of Okehi Local Government Area to welcome the lawmaker.


Local musicians entertained the crowd while they awaited Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan's arrival. The embattled Senator made a grand entrance, arriving in a white helicopter, which elicited cheers and applause from her supporters.


This homecoming celebration comes on the heels of the Kogi State Government's ban on rallies and public gatherings due to security concerns. The government had warned that intelligence reports indicated some individuals were planning to stage violent rallies in the guise of political and religious agitations within Kogi Central.


Despite the ban, Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan had announced earlier that she would not cancel her scheduled visit to her constituency for the Sallah break, emphasizing her commitment to engaging with her community and fostering unity and cooperation.
