Akpoti-Uduaghan Demands Action on Attack Against Obi

Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has demanded a thorough investigation into the recent attack on Peter Obi, a member of the African Democratic Congress (ADC). In her statement, she described the incident as troubling and unacceptable, urging security agencies to act swiftly to identify and prosecute those responsible.

Akpoti-Uduaghan stressed that political violence undermines public confidence in the nation's electoral security system and that all political actors, regardless of their affiliations, deserve protection to engage freely in democratic processes without fear of intimidation or harm. She highlighted the failure to address such incidents as detrimental to Nigeria's democracy and called for calm among citizens while reaffirming the need for unity and respect for democratic values.

The attack on Obi has raised significant security concerns across the country, prompting widespread condemnation from Nigerians who are calling for justice.
