A suspended lawmaker representing Kogi Central Senatorial District, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, has revealed that she will resume her legislative duties in the red chamber on Tuesday.
Natasha made this disclosure while addressing jubilant supporters in a video circulating on social media.
The lawmaker expressed gratitude for their steadfast backing.
“I thank you for your support. I am glad we are victorious today. We shall resume in the Senate on Tuesday by the grace of God,” she said.
Urban Express-News reports that a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja last Friday ruled that her six-month suspension from the senate was excessive, unconstitutional, and a violation of the rights of her constituents. The court ordered her immediate reinstatement.
Justice Binta Nyako also held that the post, a satirical apology directed at Senate President Godswill Akpabio, contravened a March 4, 2025, interim injunction barring parties from making public statements or social media posts concerning the case.
