Abuja, Nigeria – Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, representing Kogi Central Senatorial District, is scheduled to officially resume legislative duties at the Senate today, July 8, 2025, following a temporary absence due to health-related concerns.
Her anticipated return has generated excitement among her supporters, colleagues, and observers, as she is widely regarded as a passionate advocate for equitable development, women’s rights, and accountability in governance.
A reliable source from her media team disclosed that the senator has fully recovered and is “mentally and physically prepared to reengage with national duties.” The source added that she intends to immediately resume action on several key legislative motions affecting her constituency—particularly those touching on insecurity, infrastructure, and youth development.
Senator Natasha, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), made history in 2023 when she became the first female senator from Kogi Central. Her tenure has been marked by vocal interventions on critical national issues and a consistent push for inclusive policies that benefit the grassroots.
Her return to the red chambers is expected to re-energize ongoing deliberations and reinforce efforts to drive impactful legislation in the interest of the Nigerian people.
