BREAKING: Federal High Court Clears Way for Natasha’s Recall Process, Gives INEC Go-Ahead To Perform Its Constitutional Duty

In a landmark judgement delivered in Lokoja, a Federal High Court has set aside an earlier ruling that restrained the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) from receiving the recall process initiated by constituents of Kogi Central Senatorial District against Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.

The court’s decision, announced just a few minutes ago, affirms that the recall process is constitutionally valid and aligns with the civic rights of the constituents. The judge urged the constituents to continue exercising their rights in an orderly and peaceful manner, as they have done so far.

This development is a significant step forward for the constituents, who had launched the recall process citing a vote of no confidence in Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan’s representation. The recall process, guided by INEC’s constitutional guidelines, may potentially lead to the senator’s removal from office before the end of her term.
