Natasha Breaks Silence: ‘I Hold Tinubu In Utmost Respect’ Amid Viral ‘Omo Ologo’ Video & Defection Rumours

Suspended Kogi Central Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has distanced herself from a viral TikTok video featuring the popular song ‘Omo Ologo,’ often associated with President Bola Tinubu.

According to Naija News, the 15-second clip, shared on May 8, shows the senator smiling and engaging playfully with the camera—sparking mixed interpretations from viewers online.

The song, “Omo Ologo,” performed by Kano-based artist Dauda ‘Rarara’ Kahutu during a dinner held in honour of President Tinubu on May 3 in Katsina State, has gained significant traction as a celebratory anthem for the president’s perceived victories.

In the TikTok post, a caption reads, “Just for fun, song choked,” leading to speculation about its political undertones. However, on Saturday, Akpoti-Uduaghan took to her official X (formerly Twitter) account to issue a disclaimer, stating she does not own a TikTok account and had no connection to the video.

She clarified that the video was created using a recycled 2023 clip and urged the public to disregard the misleading post.

Her statement read:
“Public Alert I do not own a TikTok account.
Many parody accounts exist in my name on X (Twitter), Instagram, Facebook and TikTok, some with large followings.
While I hold the President in utmost respect, I urge everyone to ignore the mischievous video which used an old clip of mine from 2023.”
