Federal High Court Authorizes Recall Process for Natasha, Grants INEC Authority to Fulfill Constitutional Role
Not a valid attachment ID.
In a pivotal ruling issued in Lokoja, a Federal High Court has overturned a previous decision that prohibited the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) from engaging in the recall process initiated by voters from Kogi Central Senatorial District against Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.

The court's ruling, announced moments ago, confirms the constitutional legitimacy of the recall process and upholds the civic rights of the constituents. The presiding judge encouraged the constituents to continue exercising their rights in a peaceful and orderly fashion, as they have previously demonstrated.

This ruling marks a crucial advancement for the constituents, who initiated the recall process based on a lack of confidence in Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan's representation. Following INEC's constitutional procedures, the recall process could potentially result in the senator's removal from office prior to the conclusion of her term.
