Natasha Akpoti shows extent of her injuries after surviving road accident
The Kogi Central Senatorial candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the February 25th general election, was involved in a ghastly motor accident Friday, April 14, on the Abuja-Lokoja highway.
She was on her way to Abuja and was to return to Lokoja for the Sunday governorship primary when her Sports Utility Vehicle hit a curb on the road, causing injury to the passengers in the car.
The politician, who was unconscious, was rushed to the Federal Teaching Hospital, Lokoja, where she was resuscitated.
Giving an update days after the incident, she wrote on Instagram: “To God be all glory, I survived another accident on Friday the 14th of April 2023 along Abuja- Lokoja highway.
“Many thanks to the diligent staff of FMC Lokoja who swiftly stabilised me and organised my transfer to another facility in Abuja.
“But for a few stitches on my face and crack on a bone; I should be up and about soonest.
“Driver is unhurt, thankfully saved by the airbag.
“For all it’s worth to mention… is the love and prayers from family, friends and well-wishers which are deeply appreciated.”
This comes weeks after Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan filed a tribunal challenging the results of her senatorial election.
