Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, representing Kogi Central, has warned that she will take legal action against the Clerk to the National Assembly (CNA), Kamorudeen Ogunlana, if she is not allowed to resume her legislative duties by Monday, September 15, 2025.
The warning was contained in a letter dated September 10 and signed by her lawyer, Michael Numa (SAN).
“Take notice that failure to comply by Monday, 15th September 2025, will leave us with no alternative but to initiate proceedings against you personally and in your official capacity,” the letter stated.
Numa further argued that the CNA’s alleged refusal to obey an existing court judgment violated the law and the Code of Conduct for Public Officers.
He explained that the proposed legal steps could include contempt charges, disciplinary action, and holding the CNA responsible for instigating a breach of the peace.
“We strongly advise that you reconsider your untenable stance and comply with the Constitution and extant judicial orders,” he wrote.
This development comes after an earlier letter from the Acting Clerk to the National Assembly, Yahaya Danzaria, which informed Akpoti-Uduaghan that she could not resume because the matter of her suspension was still before the court.
