Former presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has congratulated Chief Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, the Senator-elect for Kogi Central, following her victory at Appeal Court.
The Appeal Court had affirmed the judgement of the election tribunal which declared Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as a validly elected senator of Kogi State Central.
The court also affirmed the nullification of Abubakar Sadiku-Ohere of the All Progressives Congress (APC), who was earlier returned by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as the winner of the election.
Reacting, Atiku took to his verified X (formerly Twitter) handle on Wednesday to congratulate the Kogi Central Senator-elect.
“Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan is an excellent example of a woman in politics. She is bold and courageous. Her hard fight to reclaim her seat in the Senate tells of her remarkable character.
“Congratulations to you, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan. I also join your constituents to look forward to your robust engagements on the floor of the @NGRSenate,” he wrote.
