Why We Are Bent On Recalling Natasha Akpoti – Uduaghan From Senate – Kogi Central Constituents
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Ebira speaking people in the central Senatorial District of Kogi State said the court injunction obtained on Friday by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan on recall process against her was an indication that the Senator has realised that “she is as good as gone.”

Kogi Central Renaissance Assembly (KCRA), a group of Ebira people stated this in a statement it issued in reaction to the court judgment which restrained the INEC from receiving petition for her recall.

According to the group which drew its membership from across the five local governments in the Kogi Central Senatorial District, once intentions are not pure, individuals are bound to commit irreversible blunders, “which is the case of Mrs. Akpoti-Uduaghan, even in the construction of her court Injunction.

In the statement released on Friday, the constituents claimed that desperation had pushed the senator to describe the recall signatures as fictitious, saying that should have been left for INEC to unravel during its verification exercise.

“It is laughable that the same person who has called the recall process a sham is the same person that has gone to tell the court to restrain the electoral umpire from receiving or acting on the petition, even when she says the signatures are fictitious.

“We understand your plight. This is last-minute desperation to save yourself the embarrassment of a recall.

“But we, Constituents of Kogi Central, insist that you have already embarrassed both yourself and the District, and home you shall come.

“The courts are for everybody. You can’t force yourself on us. Even, you should know that this your course of action is dead on arrival,” the statement said.

The statement was signed by the Coordinator, KCRA, Adeku Joshua; and Secretary, Maleek Sule.

The Kogi Central indigenes insisted that they would follow the recall process through in order to redeem their image, the image of the state and that of Nigeria at large.

“We, Ebiras, are not enablers of blackmail and unruly behaviour.

“We stand by this recall and will see it through. The world should know that we are people of integrity.

“Enough of embarrassing the entire country on the world stage over ridiculous allegations backed by no evidence,” they declared.

A Federal High Court sitting in Lokoja, had on Friday, granted an interim injunction restraining INEC, its staff, or agents from receiving, accepting, or acting on any petition
for the purpose of initiating a recall process against Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.

Justice Isa Dashen, gave the order after listening to the application moved by Mr Smart Nwachimere, of West-Idahosa, SAN & Co, counsel for the applicants.

The applicants, Anebe Jacob Ogirma, John Adebosi, Musa Adeiza, Ahmed Usman, and Maleek Yahaya, had through their counsel sued INEC over the alleged ongoing recalling process of Sen Akpoti-Uduaghan, the Senator representing Kogi Central Senatorial District.

The ex-parte application for the interim injunction, was supported by an Affidavit of Extreme urgency together with other court processes sworn to by Anebe Ogirima for himself and four others who are registered voters and constituents of Kogi central senatorial district of Kogi.

Justice Dashen granted the application and ordered that the court order and motion on notice be served on the defendant/despondent (INEC) .

He fixed May 6 for report of service and further mention of the case. (vitalnewsngr.com)
