Kogi State Commissioner for Information, Kingsley Fanwo has accused Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan of inciting the public against Governor Usman Ododo during a political rally held today.
Speaking in an interview on Channels Television from 4:38, Fanwo alleged that Natasha, a prominent opposition figure, used her platform to spread falsehoods aimed at stirring unrest in the state.
“From the video I saw, I saw a procession into her place. They were singing all kinds of inciting songs,” Fanwo stated. “I saw her also addressing her supporters, making frivolous statements and dishing out lies to incite the people against the government, including a governor of a state, Alhaji Usman Ododo.”
The rally, which took place in Kogi Central, reportedly attracted a large crowd of supporters. Fanwo claimed that some of the chants and remarks made during the gathering were inflammatory and designed to provoke hostility toward the state government.
The Commissioner warned against actions that could disrupt peace and security in Kogi State, urging political leaders to embrace responsible engagement with the public. “Democracy thrives on constructive dialogue, not incitement,” he added.
Meanwhile, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has yet to respond to the allegations. Her rally was part of ongoing political activities in the state, where tensions have been high following recent political developments.
Observers have called for calm and urged all political actors to avoid rhetoric that could escalate tensions. Security agencies are also monitoring the situation to prevent any breakdown of law and order.
As the political issues in Kogi continues to evolve, all eyes remain on both the government and opposition figures as they navigate the state’s future.
