The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has urged the senator representing Kogi Central, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, to disregard the letter issued by the Clerk of the National Assembly and prepare to resume at the Senate.
The PDP said this while condemning what it described as an attempt by the Senate to bar Akpoti-Uduaghan from resuming after the expiration of the six-month suspension imposed on her.
The PDP made this known in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, on Tuesday, September 9, 2025.
Ologunagba further called on the Senate leadership to ensure that Akpoti-Uduaghan was allowed to resume her duties and perform her roles as an elected Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria unhindered.
The PDP spokesperson stated that the reported action by the Clerk of the National Assembly was a calculated attempt to abridge the right of representation of the people of Kogi Central Senatorial District and deny them a voice in the country’s highest law-making body.
