The Senator representing Kogi Central Senatorial District, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, has rejected Governor Yahaya Bello’s congratulatory message to her.
Following the Appeal Court judgement that upheld her victory at the National Assembly Election Petition Tribunal, Governor Bello sent out a congratulatory message to the lawmaker.
The Governor congratulated the former PDP governorship candidate after participating in the National Police Council meeting at the Presidential Villa Abuja on Tuesday.
He described Natasha as his sister, adding that it was necessary for him to accept the court verdict on Natasha’s victory to avoid a breakdown of law and order in the state.
However, Senator Natasha, who appeared on Channels Television on Tuesday evening, accused the governor of having attempted to kill her on different occasions, insisting that the Kogi State helmsman does not know what democracy is about.
She explained that the Governor’s hunchmen shot at her vehicle.
She also noted that a day to the election, the governor dug five gullies, cutting off five roads and that was just to prevent election from going on and probably endangering her life
