Kogi group uncovers plan to silence Natasha using faceless constituents for recall 

A desperate plan to compile faceless names from Kogi State purportedly seeking the recall of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan representing Kogi Central in the Nigerian Senate has been uncovered. 

A Kogi Central-based pressure group on the platform of Action Collective made the revelation public on Wednesday. 

Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan is presently serving a six-month suspension slammed on her over the sexual harassment allegation against the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio.

In a statement made available to newsmen in Abuja, signed by its coordinator, Dr. Onimisi Ibrahim, said intelligence also revealed that allies of those fighting Senator Natasha in the Nigerian Senate are behind the plot. 

According to the group, findings revealed that Senator Natasha’s traducers consider the latest move as ‘nailing the coffin’ to prevent her from seeking justice which she is currently pursuing both here in Nigeria and from the international community.

“We gathered reliably that a former governor in Kogi State has been contracted to carry out this evil plan. We also have information that some ally INEC staff have also been recruited to commence the recall of Senator Natasha.

“This project which is said to gulp over two million dollars, will involve the recruitment of faceless persons from the various local government areas in Kogi State who would be paid to append false signatures on the purported recall paper,” the group alleged. 

The statement also alleged that some highly placed staff of INEC have been paid huge sums of money to carry out and endorse the plan, adding, “That is why it is important to alert the public especially the civil society and Human Rights Activists including the Media, who are the watchdog of the society as well as the security agencies to remain vigilant and subject such documents regarding the planned recall to proper scrutiny. A stitch in time saves nine!.”
