Suspended Senator representing Kogi Central, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, has accused Senate President Godswill Akpabio and former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello of allegedly plotting to assassinate her.

The embattled lawmaker made the startling revelation during her homecoming rally on Tuesday, where she was received by a large crowd of supporters in Okehi Local Government Area of Kogi State, Okay.ng reports.

Speaking passionately in her native Ebira language and English, Akpoti-Uduaghan claimed that the plot to eliminate her was discussed during a covert meeting between Akpabio and Bello, after the Senate President allegedly expressed dissatisfaction with her growing political influence.

“On the 13th of March at 10:00 p.m., mind you, two days before that, Akpabio had called Governor Ododo on the phone to commence my recall but Ododo told him it would be impossible,” she said.

“Ododo told Akpabio that the recall would be impossible because the masses are with me. But Akpabio was not satisfied, so he called Yahaya Bello. I was informed of everything.”

She further alleged that Akpabio offered to fund the recall effort and also suggested that her elimination be carried out within Kogi State to deflect attention from the federal level.

“The meeting was on two folds – they told him to commence my recall and that he was going to fund it. The second thing he said was that he should try and kill me.

“I didn’t make this public, but I have written to the IG of Police. Akpabio told Yahaya Bello that he should make sure that killing me does not happen in Abuja, that it should happen here so that it will look as if it was the people that killed me here,” she alleged.

As of press time, neither Senate President Akpabio nor former Governor Bello has publicly responded to the allegations. The Nigeria Police Force is also yet to confirm receipt of any formal petition from the senator regarding the alleged assassination plot.
