Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has officially submitted her nomination and expression of interest forms to contest for a second term representing Kogi Central Senatorial District under the Peoples Democratic Party ahead of the 2027 general elections.
She presented the forms on Monday at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja, accompanied by supporters, political allies, and party members.
Speaking after the submission, Akpoti-Uduaghan thanked residents of Kogi Central and PDP stakeholders for their continued support, describing her re-election bid as part of her ongoing commitment to service and democratic development.
She emphasized that her ambition goes beyond personal goals, noting that her focus remains on strengthening representation, empowering women and youths, and ensuring that communities benefit from democratic dividends.
Looking ahead, the senator outlined key priorities for a potential second term, including infrastructure development, improved healthcare, quality education, and expanded economic opportunities across the district.
“We have started a movement rooted in hope, inclusion, and progress,” she said, expressing confidence that with public support, her vision for a more inclusive and prosperous Kogi Central can be sustained.
Akpoti-Uduaghan also confirmed the development in a Facebook post, reiterating her dedication to serve with “greater purpose, courage, and commitment.”
