The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has confirmed receiving a petition from a group of voters seeking the recall of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan from the Senate.
The petition was submitted by a group of people claiming to be registered voters from the Kogi Central Senatorial District, represented by Omole Charity Ijese, Chairperson of the Kogi Women Development Association.
In a related development, a group of women have equally staged a protest in from of the INEC headquarters to register their displeasure over the recall move which they said it’s ffake.
However, it is worth noting that Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan had previously secured a court injunction to prevent INEC from receiving or acting on the recall petition.
As at the time of filing this report, it was reported that INEC is currently holding a meeting in regards to the petition received.
