Court Dismisses Suit Against Akpabio Over Natasha

Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court in Abuja has dismissed a suit filed against Senate President Godswill Akpabio challenging the legality of the six-month suspension imposed on Kogi Central Senator Natasha Uduaghan-Apoti over alleged misconduct.

The suit, filed by Ovavu Illiyasu and nine others, was thrown out on Friday on the grounds that the plaintiffs lacked locus standi—the legal authority to bring the matter before the court.


Marked FHC/ABJ/CS/654/2025, the suit sought to void Natasha Uduaghan-Apoti’s suspension, arguing that their Senatorial District would be shortchanged in the Senate and effectively lose representation during the suspension period.

In his ruling, Justice Omotosho held that the 10 plaintiffs had no legal standing to institute the action and dismissed the suit for lack of merit.
