A faction of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in Minna, Niger state, has publicly rejected Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso as the party leader. The group, led by the factional national chairman, Dr. Gilbert Agbo, accused Kwankwaso and his supporters of being a threat to the party’s progress.
During the North Central Zonal meeting held at the party’s state secretariat in Minna, Dr. Agbo expressed his concerns about Kwankwaso’s influence on the party. According to him, the Kwankwasiyya movement, led by Kwankwaso, poses a serious threat to the unity and development of the NNPP. In a symbolic act of defiance, the group burned the iconic Kwankwasiyya red caps at the party headquarters, signaling their disassociation from Kwankwaso’s faction.
Dr. Agbo further asserted that Kwankwaso’s suspension by the National Working Committee (NWC) in Lagos had effectively terminated his membership and influence within the party. The NNPP chieftain emphasized that the party’s decision was aimed at ensuring that the principles and integrity of the party are upheld.
Additionally, Dr. Agbo announced that Governor Kabir Yusuf of Kano state would be summoned before the party’s disciplinary committee. He stated that the governor’s failure to align with the party’s principles and its supreme leadership warranted such action. This decision, according to Agbo, is part of the party’s broader effort to cleanse itself of elements seen as undermining its growth and unity.
The rejection of Kwankwaso’s leadership has sparked a wave of reactions within the political landscape. As Kwankwaso remains a significant figure in the NNPP and Nigerian politics, his disavowal by the faction in Minna raises questions about the future direction of the party.
This internal conflict within the NNPP highlights ongoing tensions and challenges the party faces as it navigates its identity and leadership structure. As political parties in Nigeria gear up for future elections, such disagreements could impact the party’s performance and cohesion. The NNPP faction’s decision to distance itself from Kwankwaso may signify a shift in the party’s dynamics, with implications for its alliances and political strategy moving forward.
