The lawmaker representing Kogi Central Senatorial District,
Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, says she has been approached by the people in the
presidency to join the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Natasha disclosed this in an interview on Mic On Podcast
with Seun Okinbaloye on Saturday.
She said she would not leave the PDP for the APC, adding
that she enjoys her peace in her party.
“And even when I got married, I also was faced with the
question of, your husband is from Delta State, go contest in Delta State.
You’re no more from Kogi.
“But at each time, I had such challenges, I had to brace
myself. So I was ready for it. And I would tell every woman who wants to
venture into it that it could be tough, but you have the strength in you.
“I was in APC briefly. At the start of everything but now,
no. Why should I go join APC? I don’t have to follow the bandwagon. I don’t
have to succumb to any threats or fall for any cajolement. Let me be honest
about it. I’ve been approached by people from the presidency, from even my
colleagues, even as recent as yesterday.
“I love my space. I love my peace here. I’m okay with my
party now, so I don’t think I have to join the APC,” she said.
