À propos de ce contenu audio

In this episode of the Mic On Podcast, Seun Okinbaloye speaks with Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan about her return to the Senate after suspension and the political pressures shaping her public life. She describes herself as “good inside… but also tough” and says her suspension became an opportunity to tell her story and showcase women’s leadership.


Akpoti-Uduaghan reflects on the challenges of politics, especially for women, noting that it is a hostile environment where she must “watch her back” constantly. She remains undeterred by potential rivals, including former governor Yahaya Bello, and says she can quickly secure a new platform if needed.


The senator emphasizes the importance of female participation in politics, advocating for leaders who are intentional, competent, and assertive rather than symbolic placeholders. She also discusses her constituency projects, expressing fulfillment in delivery but frustration with limited influence in the Senate chamber.
