Senator Natasha Defies Kogi Govts Ban, Arrives At Homecoming Rally In Helicopter

Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has arrived at her homecoming rally in Kogi Central by helicopter despite the Kogi Governments restrictions on movement and public gatherings.

A crowd of placard-carrying supporters, chanting and singing, welcomed the embattled senator to the state on Tuesday, April 1, 2025.

The Kogi Police Command had earlier warned the senator to cancel her homecoming rally, but the lawmaker stood her ground, saying she hadnt broken any law.

While addressing her supporters, she said, Nobody and nothing can stop me from coming home. Im an Ebira woman this is my land. Im the daughter of the late Jimoh Abdul Akpoti. I know my roots Im not a bastard, and Im not afraid of anybody.
