Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, representing Kogi Central
in the National Assembly, has distanced herself from a viral TikTok video that
surfaced online showing her dancing to “Omo Ologo”, a song in praise of
President Bola Tinubu.
In a public disclaimer released via her verified X (formerly
Twitter) account, Akpoti-Uduaghan denied owning any TikTok account, warning the
public against being misled by parody accounts across various social media
platforms.
“I do not own a TikTok account,” she posted.
“Many parody accounts exist in my name on X (Twitter),
Instagram, Facebook and TikTok. Some have garnered large followings.”
She clarified that the circulating video was manipulated
from an old 2023 clip and repurposed with “mischievous intent” to mislead the
public.
“While I hold the President in utmost respect, I’d urge
everyone to disregard the mischievous post made using an old 2023 video of
mine,” she stated.
The video, soundtracked by “Omo Ologo”, a praise song
performed by Dauda Kahutu Rarara at a recent event attended by Tinubu in
Katsina, appeared to depict the senator aligning herself with the president’s
camp.
