The Moment Ebira People Ran Miles To Welcome Senator Natasha (Video, Photos) by Glimpsetv(op): 1:23pm On Apr 02, 2025
Senator Natasha had planned a homecoming visit to her hometown, Ihima, in Kogi State. However, the Kogi State government banned movement in convoys, citing security concerns. Additionally, the chairman of Natasha's local government area was alleged to have imposed a curfew—a move many believe was a tactic to prevent her from receiving public attention. Known for her strong connection with the people, Natasha is widely loved and easily draws large crowds.

Despite these restrictions, the Senator made a dramatic entrance by arriving in her hometown via helicopter.

As soon as the Ebira people—her constituents—heard about her arrival, both men and women, young and old, began running for miles toward the venue, defying the curfew to welcome her.

Within minutes, a massive crowd had gathered to greet their beloved Senator.
Addressing the excited crowd in both Ebira and English, Natasha expressed her joy, saying:
"I am glad to be home. Nobody and nothing can stop me from coming home. I’m an Ebira woman; this is my land. I’m the daughter of the late Jimoh Abdul Akpoti. I know my roots; I’m not a bastard, and I’m not afraid of anybody."

Her bold statement quickly went viral, trending massively across social media platforms such as X, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok.

Her father received similar welcome in the 90s.
Whatever we do in life, let's try as much as possible to be good to those people that we would return to in challenging moment.
Natasha situation should be a lesson to all, in our challenging moment, how many of us can count on our people to stand with us?

Most of Nigerians like corruption and corrupt leaders.
Lest I forget, is this peculiar to Kogites alone?
And what is the correlation between the news and this your comment?
If Natasha is corrupt, tell me which of the politician from your state who is not corrupt..
