Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, senator representing Kogi central, has disowned a viral TikTok video that shows her in a playful clip with a background song associated with President Bola Tinubu.
In a public disclaimer on her verified X account, the Kogi lawmaker said she does not own a TikTok account.
She added that the post, which featured a short clip of her with the background tune “Omo Ologo,” did not emanate from her.
“I do not own a TikTok account,” the senator wrote.
“Many parody accounts exist in my name on X (Twitter), Instagram, Facebook and TikTok. Some have garnered large following.”
She also said the viral video was created using an old clip from 2023 and was being circulated with misleading intent.
“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 said.
Her statement comes after a version of the video surfaced online, set to “Omo Ologo,” a track popularised by Dauda Kahutu Rarara in praise of Tinubu.
The song, performed earlier this month at a Katsina dinner event attended by Tinubu, portrays the president as a victorious leader who triumphed over critics.
Though the video went viral, some social media users expressed doubts about its origin, prompting Akpoti-Uduaghan to issue a formal denial.
Akpoti-Uduaghan has been at the centre of political controversy in recent weeks following her suspension from the senate and a legal dispute with senate president Godswill Akpabio.
The senator had published a sarcastic apology to Akpabio on Facebook, which his legal team is asking a federal high court to delete.
Akpoti-Uduaghan’s lawyers have pushed back, arguing that the motion amounts to an attempt to silence her.
The court is expected to rule on the matter on May 12.
Her suspension followed a heated exchange with Akpabio in the chamber and accusations of sexual harassment levelled against the senate president.
