A Certified True Copy (CTC) of the judgment delivered by the Federal High Court in Abuja on July 4, 2025, has revealed that Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan is to tender an apology solely to the court, not to the Senate, as part of the conditions to purge herself of contempt.
Papers News reports that this clarification contradicts earlier remarks by the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Media and Public Affairs, Senator Yemi Adaramodu, who suggested that the embattled Kogi Central lawmaker needed to apologise to the Senate before being reinstated.
According to the judgment by Justice Binta Nyako, Akpoti-Uduaghan was found guilty of contempt for a comment she made on her Facebook page, which violated an existing court order.
