Suspended Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has been granted bail on self-recognition by the Federal High Court in Abuja after pleading not guilty to six cybercrime charges, according to Nigerian Tribune.

  • Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan represents Kogi Central Senatorial District.
  • She was arraigned on six cybercrime-related counts by the Federal Government.
  • Charges stem from public allegations against Akpabio and ex-Governor Yahaya Bello.
  • She alleged a plot to assassinate her, orchestrated in a conversation between the two.
  • FG claims her statements were knowingly false and meant to incite unrest.
  • Defence requested bail based on self-recognition due to her senatorial status.
  • The court granted bail; trial adjourned to September 22, 2025.

In Her Name: Sometimes, reputation becomes both shield and battlefield. Granted bail by her title alone, Natasha now prepares to defend the words that could either define or undo her.
