National Leader NNPP, Kwankwaso Commends State Chairmen For ‘Upholding The Party’s Principles’

The 2023 presidential candidate of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), Rabiu Kwankwaso, has commended the party’s chairmen for what he described as upholding the party’s principles.

Kwankwaso stated this on Tuesday in a post on X (formerly Twitter), accompanied by photos showing the party’s state chairmen and other top officials on a visit to the party leader’s Abuja residence.

“Earlier today, I received all state party chairmen of our party, the NNPP, alongside other top officials of the party, on a homage at my residence in Abuja. I’m thankful for the visit. And I commend them for their continued efforts in upholding the party’s principles,” he said.

This comes after a group led by NNPP chieftains, Boniface Aniebonam and Agbo Major, suspended Kwankwaso at a special general assembly held at the Rockview Hotels in the Apapa area of Lagos State.

According to the group, ’’material evidence’’ in public affirmed that the former Kano State governor was involved in ‘’anti-party activities in various meetings,’’the group said.

However, the NNPP said the suspension of Kwankwaso is “null and void”, expelling several party chieftains, including Dr Boniface Aniebonam and Agbo Major, who spearheaded the suspension.
