Kwankwaso’s suspension is a Hollywood joke, says NNPP National Leader

Kwankwaso’s suspension is a Hollywood joke, says NNPP national leader

One of the founding members of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Alhaji Buba Galadima, says the suspension of Alhaji Rabiu Kwankwaso from the party can’t stand.

Kwankwaso was the party’s Presidential flagbearer in the February 25th 2023 Presidential election.

Buba Galadima stated this on ChannelsTV programme, Politics Today, on Tuesday night.

Newstrends  had reported that NNPP’s BoT on Tuesday suspended Kwankwaso, over what it described as “anti-party activities”.

The NNPP’s “BoT” claimed “material evidence in public affirming the former Kano state governor was involved in political discussions with President Bola Tinubu, Atiku Abubakar; and Labour Party (LP)’s Peter Obi. without authorisation from the party.

Reacting, Galadima faulted the accusations, saying the ex-Kano leader,” Kwankwaso had permission from the party to meet with President Tinubu and talk to any other political group. So, he didn’t do this on his own.”

He said “When I saw it on social media, I thought it was like a Nollywood or Hollywood joke,” Galadima said.

Galadima noted that the NNPP’s BoT had long been expelled from the party.

“All of them who were expelled were called to a disciplinary committee. They were drilled and they accepted their sins and it was on the basis of their acceptance that they were recommended to the Nation Working Committee for expulsion.”

Galadima noted that despite sponsored internal wranglings, the NNPP remains a solid party.

“A lot of people are interested in this party in the sense that the other parties felt that they could only survive if they destroyed this party.

“But unknown to them we are as solid as the Rock of Gibraltar,” he said.

Dismissing the accusations of anti-party activities against the former Kano governor, Galadima said, “As a politician, we can meet with anybody.

“He took permission from us,” the party chieftain argued. “Whatever the case, Kwankwaso had permission from the party to meet with President Tinubu and talk to any other political group. So, he didn’t do this on his own.”
