NNPP REMOVES KANO STATE PARTY CHAIRMAN
Executive members of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in Gargari Ward, Dawakin Tofa Local Government Area, Kano State, have dismissed and expelled the state party chairman, Hashimu Dungurawa, from the party, just two weeks after his re-election.
A resolution signed by 27 ward executives indicated that the decision was made during the ward’s second executive meeting, chaired by Ward Chairman Shuaibu Hassan, with Secretary Yahaya Saidu Dungurawa in attendance.
The resolution stated that Dungurawa was removed over allegations of fostering division within the party, inciting internal conflicts, failing to pay party dues, and making abusive remarks against the Kano State Governor.
The executives described these actions as unacceptable, detrimental to the party’s image, unity, and progress. They emphasized that the decision adhered to the party constitution and was intended to uphold discipline, harmony, and internal cohesion.
Copies of the resolution have reportedly been forwarded to the party’s local government, state, and national offices for further action.
“The decision has been communicated to the party’s national leader, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, and Kano State Governor, Alhaji Abba Kabir Yusuf,” the ward executives noted.
They added that the move serves as a warning to party members who abuse their positions or act above party rules. The executives reaffirmed their loyalty to the NNPP national leadership under Kwankwaso and pledged continued support for Governor Yusuf, stressing their commitment to peace, unity, and the growth of the party.
