Kogi State Commissioner for Information, Kingsley Fanwo, has dismissed claims by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan that former Governor Yahaya Bello, Governor Usman Ododo, and Senate President Godswill Akpabio conspired to assassinate her.

Natasha made the explosive allegation while addressing supporters in Okehi, Kogi State, stating that Akpabio allegedly told Bello to ensure her killing happened in Kogi rather than Abuja to disguise it as a local attack. She further claimed to have reported the alleged plot to the Inspector General of Police.
