One battle down, two more to go – Senator Natasha reacts as INEC rejects recall petition
Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan of Kogi Central has expressed joy after the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) dismissed the petition seeking her recall.
INEC rejected the petition on Thursday, stating it did not meet the constitutional requirements. According to the commission, the number of constituents who signed the petition fell short of the mandatory 50% of registered voters in the constituency.
In response, Natasha celebrated the decision and dedicated the victory to Nigerians.
On her official Facebook page, the lawmaker wrote, “On God it’s victory for the people. One battle down, two more to go.
“Deep gratitude to my beloved husband, awesome support team, magnificent people of Kogi Central and great people of Nigeria at large.
“INEC Nigeria, you did well. Senator Natasha H Akpoti Uduaghan Proudly Kogi Central.”
