Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan’s Supporters Defy Ban, Rally in Kogi Central

Supporters of suspended Kogi Central Senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, have flooded the streets in anticipation of her homecoming rally, defying a ban on public gatherings imposed by Kogi State Governor Usman Ododo.

On Monday, Kogi State Commissioner of Police, Miller Dantawaye, reaffirmed the government’s directive, warning that the planned rally violated the ban on political gatherings. He urged Akpoti-Uduaghan to cancel the scheduled Sallah rally in the Kogi Central Senatorial District.

Despite the warning, images circulating online from Tuesday, April 1, show enthusiastic supporters carrying placards expressing solidarity with the suspended lawmaker. Messages on the placards read: “Welcome home, worthy daughter of Ebiraland. The people of Okene are solidly behind you,” and “The people of Adavi are solidly behind you.”

The massive show of support underscores rising political tension in Kogi State, as Akpoti-Uduaghan’s loyalists continue to rally behind her despite the official prohibition.
