NNPP Faces Existential Threat as Crisis Deepens

The crisis rocking the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, has continued to rage on between the Kwankwasiyya and the original members.

The latest was the alleged expulsion of Sen. Rabiu Kwankwaso by the NNPP’s National Executive Committee, NEC, following his refusal to appear before the party’s Disciplinary Committee.

Mr Abdulsalam Abdulrasaq, the Acting National Publicity Secretary of NNPP, who announced the expulsion, stated in a statement on Tuesday in Lagos that the NEC had immediately expelled Kwankwaso because of his refusal to honour the committee’s invitations.

The Kwankwaso group specifically accused Aniebonam of creating a parallel group within the party to cause disaffection in the NNPP.

 

The group also upheld motions to extend the tenure of the acting national Chairman, Mallam Abah-Kawu Ali, and to redesign the party’s logo.
