Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, senator representing Kogi central, says her invitation to Senate President Godswill Akpabio and other lawmakers for the commissioning of projects in Kogi was in line with legislative procedure.

On Thursday, Akpoti-Uduaghan invited Akpabio and other lawmakers to attend a project commissioning event in her state — two months after returning from suspension.

Akpoti-Uduaghan, who marks her second year in office this week, said she wrote to the senate through the presiding officer for the letter to be read on the floor in keeping with parliamentary custom.

“Today, as is customary for announcements of such nature, I wrote a letter to the Senate through the presiding officer to the Senate President to read on the floor,” she said in a statement.

“I put out the invitation so it wouldn’t seem like I was celebrating in isolation. I’m a progressive person. Even with ongoing court cases, I continue to carry out my duties in the chamber and follow proper procedures.”

The lawmaker added that her decision reflected her commitment to due process and institutional respect, noting that her celebration of achievements and project inaugurations was about public service, not personal recognition.

On February 20, Akpoti-Uduaghan engaged Akpabio in a heated debate over seating arrangements in the upper legislative chamber.

She later accused Akpabio of sexual harassment — a claim the senate president denied.

On March 6, the senate suspended her for six months following the adoption of the report by the committee on ethics, privileges, and public petitions.

Since her return to the legislative chamber on September 24 after serving the suspension, the senator has gradually re-engaged in legislative activities.

On October 18, she attended a legislative retreat organised by the ministry of solid minerals development.

On Thursday, Akpoti-Uduaghan sponsored a bill seeking to establish a National Centre for Autism and six zonal centres across Nigeria to promote early diagnosis, research, education, and care for persons with autism spectrum disorders (ASD).

Alright. They are welcome. Most of those senators have not done a dime for their constituencies...

What stands out here isn’t the project commissioning itself but the institutional respect she’s showing. For a lawmaker once suspended for confrontation, to return and follow due parliamentary process shows political growth.
Nigerians love drama more than governance, but Natasha just flipped the script from suspended senator to a progressive host.
I doubt if the Senate President would honor such invitation but If Akpabio actually attends that commissioning, that handshake photo will trend more than budget discussion

in this country we make people popular for no reason.

there are more cogent issues to be dealt with in this country if she like she should invite donald trump so what

Akpabio should not attend this event

You send abi you no send🤔
The senate president isn’t taking her serious anymore. They’ll get settled, it’s just a matter of time.
🚶‍♂️

Tactically trying to rebuild bridges you burnt.
Mama, pack one side abeg.
If I'm the SP, I probably would ignore you for the rest of lifetime

Let them marry, let's rest.

Nigerians are largely ignorant of political matters especially we southerners that claim to have certificates

Natasha loves attention so much. That's the kind of woman she is but Akpabio miscalculated it thinking it's green light to try his luck nit knowing she's smart Akpabio and Co should expect more commissioning invitations because Natasha dey deliver.

Let’s be guided, please. I never commented on her past issues or took sides during her legal battles. My point here is simply about this recent action, following due process and showing institutional respect. Acknowledging one right move doesn’t mean I’ve been part of any camp. Context matters

I always tell Nigerians who care to listen not to kill themselves over these politicians.....They all know where they meet.

ENOUGH, PLEASE 🥺
Please,leave Akpabio and Other Distinguish Senators Alone.
However,Other Senators TOO SHOULD SHOW US THEIR OWN CONSTITUENCY PROJECTS - LIKE NATASHA - WHICH SHOULD BE A CHALLENGE TO ALL OUR Legislatures, afterall,it has been stated that they now Collect CONSTITUENCY PROJECTs Money to the tune of N2-BILLIONS For Senators and N1 Billion for House Members,
Yet,Most Rural Areas and the Urban likewise Are Yet To Witness Upliftment from POVERTY!
KUDOS TO SENATOR NATASHA BUT HE SHOULD LET NIGERIANS JUDGE THE OTHER SENATORS - NOT BY HER COSSY BULLING!

Why would Akpabio fall for that? and what script has she flipped.....institutional respect my black nigerian aszz. more like institutional disrespect she has showed in the hallowed chamber over and over again when she does not have her ways.

A progressive host indeed, she must be suffering from Stockholm syndrome!

If you claimed your allegations where true, that a man sexually assaulted you, why invite your sexual assaulter? That could only mean one thing! The alleged sexual assault never happened!

She's only continuing her mockery of him just as she did through her mockery or sarcastic letter of apology she wrote earlier in april.

Akpabio Will no longer associate with her!

Distinguished Senator mam, good jobs bringing development to your district and your works in general at the upper chamber mam. Like you mentioned mam that inviting the SP is procedural, you don't have to reply or bring everything about the house outside, their is a reason it's called the distinguished house. If you can keep somethings that happens in the house to remain in the house I think they will be a lesser brouhaha.

Hahahahah aaaaah you just swallow everything hook,line and sinker. Politics! Take it to heart at your own detriment. She played the wrong game for cheap nation wide sympathy and popularity obviosuly from guible citizens sge reaped a little from it. But the people in the game know her and her gimmicks they will only align with her when they want to use her.
