NASS awaits apology As Natasha postpones return to Senate

The suspended lawmaker representing Kogi Central, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, has moved her proposed return to legislative duty on Tuesday, following Friday’s judgment, which nullified her six-month sanction.
The senator also failed to tender a public apology in two major dailies and her social media account, in line with the court order.
Akpoti-Uduaghan had told her jubilant supporters in a video trending on social media that she would resume her legislative activities in the Red Chamber on Tuesday.
The senator also expressed gratitude to her constituents for standing by her, following the favourable court judgment that reaffirmed her position in the Senate.
Following her threat to attend Tuesday’s plenary, the Senate leadership stated that it would not take any official action on the matter until the review of the Certified True Copy of the court’s pronouncement.
While bracing for a possible showdown, security at the National Assembly was beefed up with traffic extending to the intersection at the Federal Secretariat in Abuja.
Although authorities insisted that the heavy retinue of operatives had nothing to do with the suspended senator, incoming vehicles were thoroughly searched with the passengers asked to explain their mission.
Many speculated that the lawmaker must have been warned by the Senate to stay away following her failure to resume legislative duty on Tuesday June 8 as promised
