Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan sworn in as Kogi Central Senator

This comes after the Appeal Court in Abuja upheld an earlier judgment of the Kogi National Assembly Election Petition Tribunal, which declared her the rightful winner of the Senatorial Election.

Her opponent and candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abubakar Ohere, had challenged her electoral victory at the lower court where he lost and went on to challenge this at the appellate court.
