Akpabio Instructed Yahaya Bello To Organise My Assassination In Kogi Says Natasha
Akpabio instructed Yahaya Bello to organise my assassination in Kogi says Natasha. Mrs Akpoti-Oduaghan alleged that Mr Akpabio contracted the former governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, to commence her recall and assassination.
Senator Natasha Akpoti-Oduaghan on Tuesday alleged that Senate President Godswill Akpabio contracted the former governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, to commence her recall and assassination.
Mrs Akpoti-Uduaghan made this allegation while addressing his constituents at a rally held in Ihima, Kogi Central, on Tuesday.
The politician said Mr Akpabio initially contacted Usman Ododo to commence her recall, but the state’s incumbent governor “told him it would be impossible because the masses are with her.”
She said that Mr Akpabio, dissatisfied with Mr Ododo’s response, asked Mr Bello to ensure her recall and assassination, with a promise to fund the processes.
“But Akpabio was not satisfied; he then called for Yahaya Bello. It was Senator Asuqwo that drove Yahaya Bello to the Hiltons. I was informed,” Mrs Akpoti-Uduaghan said. “The meeting was in two folds; he told him to commence my recall. He was going to fund it. Of course, money changed hands that day. The second thing was that he should kill me.”
She added, “Akpabio told Yahaya Bello to kill me. Akpabio told him to make sure that killing me does not happen in Abuja. It should be done here. So it will seem as if the people killed me here. I didn’t make that public, but we did notify the police about it.”
Aniete Ekong, the spokesperson for Mr Akpabio, could not be reached for a response to Mrs Akpoti-Uduaghan’s latest allegation against his principal. A WhatsApp message sent to Mr Ekong was not replied.
Fanwo Kingsley, Kogi commissioner of information, who doubles as spokesperson for the former governor, could not be reached for comments. A WhatsApp message sent to him has not been replied to.

Similarly, the spokesperson for Nigerian police, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, could not be reached to confirm Mrs Akpoti-Uduaghan’s claim that she filed a petition to the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, on Mr Akpabio and Mr Bello’s plot to assassinate her.
Mrs Akpoti-Uduaghan stormed her constituency in a chopper, defying warnings by the police, state governor, and a curfew declared in her local government to stop her from coming home.
The Kogi Central lawmaker, who the Senate suspended for unruly behaviour during plenary, accused Mr Akpabio of sexually harassing her.
The embattled lawmaker described her suspension as a witch-hunt by the Senate and an attempt to silence her for accusing Mr Akpabio of s3xual molestation.

The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has urged stakeholders in the healthcare sector to support efforts in combating substandard and counterfeit products in the country.

The workshop, themed “Sensitisation and Awareness on Greenbook, Traceability Product, and Pediatric Policy,” was designed to provide information, raise awareness, and offer hands-on training to stakeholders.
Mrs Adeyeye, represented by her special assistant, Gbenga Fajemirokun, emphasised that NAFDAC was determined to leverage modern technologies to address counterfeit activities.
She highlighted the importance of the NAFDAC Greenbook, an online tool for verifying the authenticity of products, as part of the agency’s effort to protect consumers.
“By entering a product’s name, brand, or registration number, stakeholders can check whether a product is registered with NAFDAC and deemed authentic.”

There’s No Democracy In Nigeria, Peter Obi Explains Why
There’s no democracy in Nigeria, Peter Obi explain why and says “let’s stop telling ourselves lies”.
Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 elections. Peter Obi, the candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 presidential election, says Nigeria is not a democratic country.
Speaking on Tuesday during his appearance on Prime Time, a programme on Arise TV, Obi claimed that the standards for measuring democracy do not exist in Nigeria.
“I have said it, and I maintain that there is no democracy in Nigeria today,” Obi said.
“Nigeria today is not a democratic country. Let’s stop telling ourselves lies. If you look at all the tenets and yardsticks measuring democracy, it doesn’t exist here.
“Democracy is the government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Today, the government we have is not of the people.
“It is not by the people because the people didn’t vote. It wasn’t their votes. I’m not just talking about the presidency; it’s across the line. Look at what happened in Edo. Can you call that democracy?
“It is not the vote of the people. And it is not for the people. I have just told you that I went to an IDP camp where we have thousands of people. No primary health care.
“They were begging me to have one nurse, which I said I must make sure they have. They don’t even have a primary school, which again I have told them I will make sure it happens.”
Obi criticised the government for prioritising the wrong issues and neglecting social capital development.
“So, what are you doing for a country that just spent N21 billion to renovate the house for the vice-president who isn’t living there? And you cannot even have a primary school for kids who are going to be leaders of Nigeria tomorrow,” he said.
Peter Obi Explains Why
In March, Obi faulted President Bola Tinubu for declaring a state of emergency in Rivers and suspending Siminalayi Fubara, governor of the state.
The former governor of Anambra said Nigeria’s democracy, which has been progressing since 1999, is now collapsing and being “knocked down” by Tinubu’s administration.
