The South South Zonal chapter of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has slammed the lawmaker representing Kogi Central Senatorial District. At the National Assembly, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, over her satirical letter of apology to the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, regarding her ordeal in the upper legislative chamber.
Natasha was, in March 2025, suspended for six months following her submission of a petition alleging harassment by Akpabio, an accusation which he has firmly denied. Last Sunday, the suspended lawmaker tendered an unreserved apology to the Senate president over the controversial sexual harassment allegation she had levelled against him. In the letter, Akpoti-Uduaghan expressed “deepest sarcasm and utmost theatrical regret” for “the grievous crime of possessing dignity and self-respect” in Akpabio’s presence.
But in a reaction on Wednesday, APC’s Zonal Organizing Secretary, Mr. Blessing Agbomhere, urged Natasha to consider joining Nollywood, as letter writing will not be of much help to her in her journey of “mudslinging habit” targeted at the President of the Senate and the National Assembly as an institution, which will never yield her expected results.
Agbomhere described the satirical letter as laughable and meaningless to those who believe in the sanctity of the legislature and those who love the Senate President.
Agbomhere reiterated that Senator Natasha’s continued “unpatriotic actions” since her suspension should be condemned by every well-meaning Nigerian, rather than being encouraged, as is being done by charlatans and unpatriotic elements who find fulfilment in destroying the image of their own country.
The APC South South Zonal Organising Secretary reminded Senator Natasha of the oath of office she took while being sworn in as Kogi Central lawmaker, which, among other things, includes the protection of the sanctity of the National Assembly.
Agbomhere, who is also the Director General, Door to Door For Bola Ahmed Tinubu Presidency, a campaign organisation dedicated to President Tinubu’s re-election in 2027, alleged that Senator Natasha is in cahoots with individuals such as Martin Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, Barrister Deji Adeyanju, and Omoyele Sowore, all of whom claim to be advocates for the masses and are working restlessly with the opposition to mislead gullible citizens from appreciating the gains of President Bola Tinubu and the APC-led administration.
He noted: “Senator Natasha has satirically realised that the Nigerian Senate, like the British House of Lords and the Senate of the United States of America, is an institution that has the powers, without fear of blackmail, to reprimand its erring members. Senator Natasha has satirically accepted that Senator Godswill Akpabio remains the uncommon, infallible, and unbeatable President of the Senate, who will continue to act as such, unshakable and committed to the good governance of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“Whether by satire, idiom or innuendo, she has a choice to either apologise sincerely for her indiscipline, malicious falsehood, and treasonable actions or remain suspended and keep missing out on those beautiful working-visit pictures she loves to take with the Handsome, Uncommon and Adorable President of the Nigerian Senate.
“I encourage the President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, to continue to work hand-in-hand with the Executive Arm of the Federal Government to succeed, and no amount of blackmail and grandstanding by the opposition will stop President Bola Tinubu from returning to Aso Rock in 2027.”
