According to her, she is following the court order and has officially written another letter, informing the senate about her plan to resume.Akpoti-Uduaghan had earlier notified the Senate on her intention to return in a letter dated 11 July and addressed to the Clerk of the National Assembly.The letter was written by her legal counsel, Michael Numa, urging the red chamber to take immediate steps to facilitate her return in compliance with the judgment of court presided over by Binta Nyako.In the letter, the senator referenced the courts ruling that her six-month suspension was excessive, unconstitutional, and a violation of her constituents right to representation.Her resumption last week was however stalled due to the non-availability of the certified true copy.Last week, The President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, approached the Court of Appeal to challenge the ruling of the Federal High Court in Abuja, which ordered the recall of Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan to the Senate.In a notice of appeal dated July 14, 2025, and filed at the Abuja Division of the appellate court, Akpabio is seeking to overturn the July 4 judgment delivered by Justice Binta Nyako.The post <a href="http://www.lindaikejisblog.com/2025/7/suspended-senator-natasha-insists-on-returning-to-the-senate-on-tuesday-2.html">Suspended Senator Natasha insists on returning to the Senate on Tuesday</a> appeared first on <a href="https://www.lindaikejisblog.com">Linda Ikeji Blog</a>.
