Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has emerged as the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the Kogi Central Senatorial District ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The development was disclosed in a statement issued on Thursday in Abuja by her Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Mike Idoko.
According to Idoko, party members and supporters participated in an affirmation exercise conducted across the 57 wards in the senatorial district.
The exercise reportedly took place simultaneously across all wards before the final collation of results at Kahal Cinema in Okene, where party leaders, stakeholders and supporters gathered for the conclusion of the process.
The statement further noted that officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) monitored the exercise alongside members of the media to ensure transparency and compliance with due process.
Speaking after the collation of results, Natasha appreciated party members and supporters for what she described as a strong demonstration of confidence and unity.
“This affirmation is a reflection of the trust and confidence the people of Kogi Central have continued to place in our collective vision for progress, inclusion and development,” she said.
The lawmaker added that the turnout across the district reflected the commitment of party members to strengthening democratic participation.
“I am deeply humbled by the massive turnout across all 57 wards. This is not just about one individual; it is about our people coming together in unity to deepen democracy and build a stronger and more prosperous Kogi Central,” she stated.
Natasha also assured supporters of her continued commitment to representing the interests of the district and maintaining close engagement with communities across the senatorial zone.
“I accept this responsibility with gratitude and renewed commitment. By the grace of God and with the continued support of our people, we will remain focused on delivering sustainable development, justice and opportunities for everyone,” she added.
