 Suspended Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan Denies Violating Court Orders in Dispute with Senate President Akpabio


Suspended Kogi Central Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has denied breaching court orders that restrained her from posting on social media or granting interviews regarding her allegations against Senate President Godswill Akpabio. The denial comes in response to a fresh application filed by Akpabio’s legal team, led by Kehinde Ogunwumiju, SAN, at the Federal High Court in Abuja, demanding that Akpoti-Uduaghan delete a controversial video and remove related posts from her social media accounts.


The legal action stems from a video Akpoti-Uduaghan shared on April 27, 2025, on her Facebook page, where she sarcastically “apologized” to Akpabio, saying she was “sorry for the crime of maintaining dignity and self-respect” and for not allowing the Senate President to “have his way” with her. The post, described as a satirical apology, went viral and was widely interpreted as a jab at Akpabio amid ongoing tensions between the two lawmakers. The conflict originated from Akpoti-Uduaghan’s earlier accusation of sexual overtures by Akpabio following a dispute over Senate seating arrangements.


In a counter-affidavit, Akpoti-Uduaghan dismissed Akpabio’s claims as “misleading and inaccurate,” arguing that her April 27 post, titled “Satirical Apology Letter,” did not reference the ongoing case or prejudice the proceedings. She described the post as “political satire on patriarchal norms in the legislature,” protected under Section 39(1) of the Nigerian Constitution as free speech. She further accused Akpabio’s team of malice, claiming the motion was intended to “harass, intimidate, and scandalize” her for exercising her constitutional rights to free expression and a fair hearing. Additionally, she pointed out that Akpabio’s counsel, Monday Ubani, SAN, had also commented on the proceedings via a Facebook post on May 4, 2025, while vilifying her.
