October 15, (THEWILL) – The National Leader and presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, says he will not comment on the ongoing internal crisis rocking the party in the State.
Kwankwaso, when approached by journalists at his Miller Road residence in Kano on Tuesday, said he had nothing to say about the crises.
“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,” the leader of the Kwankwasiyya political movement said.
The crisis bedevilling the NNPP deepened on Monday with the suspension of the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Dr Abdullahi Baffa Bichi, and the state Commissioner of Transportation, Muhammad Diggol, for alleged disrespect to the party.
The Chairman of the party, Hashim Sulaiman Dungurawa, who announced the suspension, said the two officials were sanctioned following their alleged disrespect to the party, abuse of power, and office and disloyalty to the party.
THEWILL gathered that the suspension came barely a few moments after Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf brokered a reconciliation between the SSG and the aggrieved members of his constituency.
Abdullahi Yusuf is a seasoned journalist, communicator and was previously the Deputy Editor-In-Chief and Zonal Manager, News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, Jos, where he retired on December 15, 2021
