Kogi Central: Appeal Court affirms Natasha Akpoti as Senator-elect

Earlier in September, the Kogi State Election Petition Tribunal in Lokoja declared Ohere of the All Progressives Congress (APC) the winner of the Kogi Central Senatorial Election.

The court further declared Natasha Akpoti-Uduagan of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as the actual winner of the February senatorial poll.

However, Ohere had headed to the appellate court to seek redress but the court further upheld Akpoti-Uduagan as the winner of the poll.
