Kogi State Commissioner for Information, Kingsley Fanwo, has addressed the assassination allegation made by suspended Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.
Akpoti-Uduaghan accused the Kogi government of plotting to assassinate her during the homecoming rally in her hometown in Okehi Local Government Area on Tuesday.
She added that she had already reported the development to the police.
“Akpabio told Yahaya Bello that he should make sure that killing me does not happen in Abuja, that it should happen here so that it will look as if it was the people that killed me here,” Akpoti-Uduaghan said.
In his response, Fanwo denied the assassination plot, adding that Kogi Governor Usman Ododo and Senate President Godswill Akpabio never talked about anything of the sort.
“The governor (Ododo) and the senate president never discussed anything that has to do with the suspended senator (Natasha) of Kogi Central.
“There was no conversation to recall her, and there was no conversation to assassinate her,” Fanwo stated in an interview with Channels TV.
