Fresh revelations have emerged in the ongoing efforts by some groups to recall the Senator representing Kogi Central District, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan as the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) denied knowledge of its registration status.
Tribune Online reports that the groups, allegedly on behalf of the Natasha’s constituents, recently submitted a petition with six bags containing signatures, to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in a bid to commence the recall process of the Senator.
However, Tribune Online also reports that INEC picked hole in the petition, saying it lacked contact details of the petition. Subsequently, the group, Kogi Central Political Frontier provided the contact details which were also confirmed by INEC.
In a recent development, a letter from the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC), dated March 27 2025, confirmed that Kogi Central Political Frontier, one of the main groups spearheading the recall process, does not exist in the commission’s records. The letter, obtained by our correspondent, states:
“Kindly be informed that the exact name ‘Kogi Central Political Frontier’ is not available on record as an entity registered with the commission. Further be guided that the commission does not register political bodies or pressure groups.”
Recall that the electoral umpire, on Wednesday, disclosed that it has notified the suspended Kogi Central Senator of a recall process instituted against her.
Meanwhile, this is coming amidst the allegations of sexual harassment by the Senator against the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio.
