- The party has been embroiled in an internal crisis which led to the suspension of the Secretary to the State Government, SSG, Abdullahi Baffa Bichi and the Commissioner of Transportation, Muhammad Diggol.
The 2023 presidential candidate of the New Nigeria People’s Party, NNPP, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has distanced himself from the internal crisis rocking the party in Kano State.
The leader of the Kwankwasiyya movement said he had refrained from speaking on the imbroglio because he doesn’t want to get dragged into an issue that did not concern him.
Kwankwaso, a former governor of Kano State, made this known on Tuesday when fielding questions from newsmen in his Miller Road residence in Kano.
“I don’t want to talk, please. Don’t drag me into what I am not supposed to be dragged into. The chairman of the party has spoken and has been speaking, reach out to him,” he said.
The party has been embroiled in an internal crisis which led to the suspension of the Secretary to the State Government, SSG, Abdullahi Baffa Bichi and the Commissioner of Transportation, Muhammad Diggol.
The party chairman, Hashim Sulaiman Dungurawa, cited alleged disrespect to the party, abuse of power, office and disloyalty to the party for suspension of the duo.
The suspension came barely an hour after Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf led reconciliation between the SSG and the aggrieved members of his constituency.
The SSG had also dissociated himself from the ongoing campaign instigating the separation of Governor Yusuf and Kwankwaso under the guise of ‘Abba Tsaya da Kafarka’ meaning; Abba stand on your feet
