The suspended parliamentary member representing the Kogi Central Senatorial District, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uuduaghan, has rejected the viral tiktok video where he was seen singing and dancing with songs that praised the President of Bola Tinubu.
In a clip that lasted 15 seconds posted on the Tiktok page that was said to have a senator that was fought, he was seen eager to the track titled “Asiwaju Omo Oologo” conducted by popular canoe musicians and supporters of Tinubu held in Katubu, to President Dauda Kahutu.
The video has triggered a direct controversy because many connect it with the purchases that will soon occur at the Congress of all Progressive (APC).
But in a quick reaction, Senator refused the video, saying he did not have a Tiktok account.

“I don’t have a Tiktok account,” wrote the senator.
“Many parody accounts are in my name on X (Twitter), Instagram, Facebook and Tiktok. Some have collected many followers.”
He also said the viral video was made using an old clip from 2023 and was being circulated with misleading intentions.
“While I hold the president very respectfully; I urge everyone to ignore the naughty posts made using my old 2023 video,” he added.
