NNPP Faction Calls For Urgent Intervention Amid Ongoing Crisis, Summons Kano State Governor Yusuf

A faction within the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) has escalated the ongoing crisis by summoning Kano State Governor, Alhaji Abba Yusuf, to appear before its disciplinary committee. The faction alleges that Governor Yusuf, who was elected on the party’s platform and is a prominent national figure, participated in what they deem an illegal and factional national convention of the NNPP. The summons, detailed in a statement titled “Invitation to Appear before NNPP’s Disciplinary Committee,” was signed by the group’s National Secretary, Comrade Oginni Olaposi, and addressed directly to Governor Yusuf.

The statement outlines the specific date and time for Governor Yusuf’s appearance at the NNPP’s National Headquarters in Abuja, emphasizing the need for him to explain his involvement in the convention held by the Kwankwasiya group, which the faction considers unauthorized. The disciplinary committee, chaired by Barrister Monday Mawah with Prince Adetoyese Omokanye as Secretary, will provide Governor Yusuf with an opportunity for fair hearing as per the party’s constitution.

Governor Yusuf is expected to present his case and address the allegations laid out in the summons. The statement underscores the importance of adherence to party discipline and democratic principles, warning that sanctions outlined in the NNPP Constitution may be invoked if deemed necessary. Compliance with the summons is urged to uphold internal party processes and respect party supremacy.
