  • Natasha Akpoti, a senator, has defied the Kogi State government’s ban on rallies and large gatherings, proceeding with a gathering in Kogi Central.

  • Akpoti shifted potential blame for any violence that may occur onto Governor Usman Ododo, former Governor Yahaya Bello, and Senate President Godswill Akpabio.

  • The Kogi State government has taken measures to prevent violence and maintain law and order.

Natasha Akpoti, a senator representing Kogi Central, has proceeded with a rally in defiance of the Kogi State government’s ban on rallies and large gatherings.

The government had imposed the ban due to communal and political tensions in the state, aiming to prevent escalation of violence and maintain law and order.

In a recent Facebook post, Akpoti attempted to shift potential blame for any violence that may occur onto Governor Usman Ododo, former Governor Yahaya Bello, and Senate President Godswill Akpabio.

The Kogi State government’s ban on public gatherings is not unique to the state.

Similar restrictions have been imposed in other states, such as Bayelsa, Anambra, and Rivers, to prevent violence and maintain security.

Akpoti’s defiance poses a risk to the people of Kogi Central, and the government has warned that she will be held accountable if any violence erupts as a result of her actions.
