Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (PDP, Kogi Central) has reacted to the Federal Government’s decision to withdraw criminal defamation charges previously filed against her. The High Court of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) struck out the case on Wednesday, bringing an end to the legal proceedings.
In a statement following the court’s ruling, the senator said the development vindicated her stance and reaffirmed her confidence in the rule of law. She described the outcome as a confirmation of her position and expressed optimism in the integrity of Nigeria’s legal system.
