Kogi LG Chairman Imposes Curfew Ahead of Senator Natasha’s Constituency Visit
In a controversial move, the Local Government Chairman in Kogi State has imposed a curfew ahead of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan’s scheduled visit to her constituency. This decision has sparked outrage among supporters, raising concerns about political suppression and citizens’ right to peaceful gatherings.
The Curfew Announcement
The curfew, reportedly aimed at maintaining security and order, comes just before the senator’s planned visit. The chairman cited security concerns as the reason for the restriction, stating that it was necessary to prevent any unrest or violence.
However, many believe that the timing of the curfew is politically motivated, as Natasha remains a strong opposition voice in Kogi politics. Critics argue that this move is an attempt to limit her influence and prevent her from engaging with the people.
Public Reactions and Political Tensions
Supporters Outraged – Many of Natasha’s followers see the curfew as a deliberate attempt to frustrate her political engagements and silence her voice.
Calls for Democracy – Human rights activists and political analysts have criticized the move, stressing that freedom of movement and political expression are fundamental rights.
Security Concerns or Political Suppression? – While authorities insist that the measure is for safety, many believe it is a targeted strategy to prevent Natasha from gaining more grassroots support.
Senator Natasha’s Response
Despite the curfew, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has remained defiant, insisting that she will not be intimidated. She has called on security agencies to act neutrally and ensure that democracy is upheld in Kogi State.
Her supporters have vowed to stand by her, demanding that the restriction be lifted and that political gatherings be allowed without fear or intimidation.
What Happens Next?
With tensions rising, all eyes are on Kogi State. Will the curfew be enforced, or will Natasha defy the restrictions and go ahead with her visit? The coming days will reveal whether the government backs down or whether political resistance escalates.
Regardless of the outcome, this incident has once again highlighted the deep political divisions in Kogi and the broader challenges of freedom of expression in Nigerian politics.
