Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, has petitioned the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, seeking an investigation into an alleged assassination plot made against him by suspended Kogi Central Senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In the petition, Akpabio denied the serious accusation and called for the prosecution of Akpoti-Uduaghan for criminal defamation.<\/p>\n

The petition, which was also copied to the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi, SAN, comes after Akpoti-Uduaghan\u2019s allegations on April 1, 2025.<\/p>\n

Addressing her supporters during her homecoming in Kogi State, Akpoti-Uduaghan accused Akpabio of instructing former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello and Governor Usman Ododo to assassinate her in Kogi<\/a> State, claiming that the act was intended to make it appear that her constituents were responsible for her death.<\/p>\n

However, Akpabio categorically denied the accusation, calling it a \u201cheinous lie\u201d and a \u201creckless and deliberate attempt\u201d to tarnish his reputation.<\/a><\/p>\n

The Senate President labelled the allegation as politically motivated, accusing Akpoti-Uduaghan of attempting to incite political unrest and damage his public image.<\/p>\n

He stressed that the allegation was made without any supporting evidence.<\/p>\n

The Senate President also highlighted the severe impact of the false allegation, especially given its widespread coverage across media platforms, including radio, television, and social media.<\/p>\n

Akpabio urged law enforcement agencies to treat the matter with the seriousness it deserves.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cI write to formally bring to your attention and seek immediate investigation and prosecution of a criminally defamatory and malicious statement made against me by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, a suspended member of the Nigerian Senate on the 1st of April, 2025 and which was widely publicised on radio stations, televisions and newspapers, including the social media.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the public outburst at Kogi State while addressing her audience, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan falsely alleged that I instructed the former Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, to \u2018assassinate her in Kogi State instead of Abuja\u2019 with the intent of making it appear that her constituents were responsible for her death.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis statement is not only a heinous lie but a reckless and deliberate attempt to damage my reputation, endanger my life and security, and incite political unrest.<\/p>\n

\u201cI categorically state that this allegation is entirely false, unfounded, and politically motivated. It is a calculated act of blackmail and character assassination, designed to portray me as a political villain, and the statement was made without any shred of truth or supporting evidence.\u201d<\/p>\n

Akpabio added that the statement was intended to manipulate public sentiment and malign his person and office.<\/p>\n

He emphasised the importance of holding public officeholders accountable for their actions, particularly when such statements are intended to destabilise democratic institutions and tarnish the image of elected officials.<\/p>\n

\u201cHer motive was clear, which was to incite the public, manipulate sentiments, and malign my person and office in the eyes of the Nigerian people and the international community.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe severity of this false allegation, and the fact that it has gained public traction, makes it necessary that law enforcement agencies treat it with the urgency it deserves,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Akpabio also called for the \u201cimmediate investigation into the false and inciting allegation\u201d and the prosecution of \u201cSenator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan under the relevant provisions of the law for criminal defamation, incitement, false accusation, and conduct likely to cause a breach of peace.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Senate President, Godswill Akpabio,
