The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) has issued a stern warning against any move to declare a state of emergency in Kano State amidst the ongoing emirship conflict.
The  party expressed concerns that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) is leveraging federal security forces to undermine the state’s autonomy, particularly in matters concerning traditional rulership.
In a statement released on Saturday by the NNPP spokesman Ladipo Johnson, the party criticized the APC for allegedly using security agencies to disrupt the peace and legal state functions in Kano.
Johnson highlighted the situation as a perilous ploy that could destabilize the state’s governance and urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to prevent the situation from escalating into violence.
The NNPP statement elaborated on the concerns surrounding the reinstatement of the deposed Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero, describing his return under heavy military escort as a violation of constitutional governance.
The NNPP has called on national elders, Nigerian citizens, and the international community to urge President Tinubu to rein in members of his party who are allegedly trying to throw Kano and the broader northern region into chaos to fulfill personal political ambitions.
