The embattled senator representing Kogi central Senatorial district, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has said that she stand firm in her resolve to never apologise for speaking the truth.
In a statement issued on Monday which was signed by the senator and made available to newsmen in Lokoja, she noted that the desperation to silence her is palpable, but she will not be intimidated.
The statement read as follows:
“I, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, stand firm in my resolve to never apologise for speaking my truth. The desperation to silence me is palpable, but I will not be intimidated.
“The games being played in full view of the Nigerian people will be exposed, and the corrupt individuals who have hijacked our institutions will be held accountable.
“As a senator, I have a duty to represent my constituents and uphold the principles of justice and transparency. My allegations against Senate President Godswill Akpabio were not made lightly, and I will continue to seek justice and accountability, no matter the cost.
“My six-month suspension is a clear case of political victimisation, but I will not be deterred. I will continue to fight for the rights of Nigerian women and ensure that our voices are heard.
“I urge the public to ignore the viral report claiming that I apologised to the Senate, as it is entirely false. I will continue to stand by my truth and fight for what is right, even in the face of adversity,”.
