No Apology: Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan Addresses Senate Claims
Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, representing Kogi Central, has firmly denied reports claiming she apologized to the Nigerian Senate following her suspension. In a statement released on March 24, 2025, she described these reports as “false and misleading,” reaffirming her stance on the issues that led to her suspension.
Akpoti-Uduaghan emphasized her commitment to seeking justice and accountability, stating that no amount of suppression would deter her from fulfilling her mandate. She highlighted the pressure from various quarters to tender an apology but insisted she would not succumb, expressing her intent to expose and substantiate her claims.
The senator’s suspension has sparked significant public discourse, with women’s rights groups condemning the action and organizing protests under the banner “We are all Natasha.” This movement underscores broader concerns about gender inequality and the treatment of women in Nigerian politics.
Akpoti-Uduaghan’s unwavering position highlights the challenges faced by female politicians in Nigeria and brings attention to the need for addressing issues of sexual harassment and gender-based discrimination within the country’s political landscape.
