Many left surprised as Senator Natasha invites Senate President, Godswill Akpabio and others to her projects inauguration in Kogi.
The frosty relationship between Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (Kogi Central) and Senate President Godswill Akpabio appears to have been mended following the lawmaker’s invitation to Akpabio and all senators to attend the commissioning of her constituency projects in Kogi state next Sunday.
The seeming reconciliation became public today, October 30 when Akpabio read Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan’s letter of invitation during plenary.
The letter, personally signed by the Kogi senator, invited her colleagues to join her in Ihima, Kogi State, on Sunday, for the commissioning ceremony marking her second anniversary in the Senate.
Visibly pleased, Akpabio congratulated his colleague after reading the letter, saying: “Congratulations in advance.”
The invitation is seen as a major step in healing the rift between both lawmakers despite their legal battles in court.
Their feud earlier this year over seat reallocation in the Senate chamber escalated into a full-blown dispute, culminating in Senator Natasha’s six-month suspension on March 6. She served her suspension and returned to the house in September.
