Kwankwaso No More In NNPP, NWC Tells Gov. Otti

The National Working Committee of New Nigerian People’s Party NNPP has urged the Governor of Abia State, His Excellency Alex Otti not to tolerate the former Lano state governor, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso and his Kwankwasiya group as a member of the party, says the former governor and his group have been long expelled from NNPP.

The party made the release in a statement signed by National Publicity Secretary Abdulsalam Abdulrazaq in Lagos, reacting to the recent visit of the former presidential candidate of the party and his Kwankwasiya group to Governor Alex Otti of Abia state.

It will be recalled that an Abia State High Court ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to handover the party’s management to its Board of Trustees (BOT).

According to the NNPP, the party said, Kwankwaso and his expelled followers visited the governor in an attempt to look for a way to upturn the decision of the court. The party said that neither Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso nor his entourage were still members of NNPP, thereby urging the governor not to take any of their discussion seriously.

The communique reads:

SENATOR RABIU MUSA KWANKWASO IPQNICS OVER RECENT ABIA HIGH COURT JUDGMENT ON NNPP.

KWANKWASO’S RECENT VISIT TO ABIA A DISGUISE TO COMPLAIN OVER JUDGMENT OF ABIA HIGH COURT. JUDGMENT OF ABIA STATE HIGH COURT ARE CONSEQUENCES OF KWANKWASO’S BETRAYAL OF TRUST, CHEATING AND GREED.

THE National Working Committee at an emergency meeting held at the Rockview Hotel, Apapa, Lagos on the 10th of November 2024  resolved as follows :

The National Working Committee (NWC) noted with concern the recent visit of Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso an expelled former presidential candidate of NNPP to the Governor of Abia State, His Excellency Alex Otti on Saturday 9th November 2024 as invalid and decietful

The attention of the NWC of the NNPP has been drawn to the introduction of Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso and the Kwankwasiya group members that accompanied him to Abia state government house as members of National Executive of the NNPP as an act of irresponsibility and impersonation forthwith

We hereby, reiterate that Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso was long expelled from our party NNPP together with his Kwankwasiya group members and so those that were introduced  along side with Kwankwaso as NNPP executives are not known to the party.

We are reliably informed that some of the issues discussed by Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso on camera with the Abia state governor was connected with the recent judgement of Abia State High Court which compelled INEC to handover the administration of the party to the Board of Trustees (BOT) according to the party constitution 2022 as amended.

We wish to advise governor Otti not to allow himself to be dragged into the internal affairs of the NNPP by the expelled self acclaimed National leader who is hell bent to disorganise the party ahead of 2027 General Election.

Recognising the fact that the governor of Abia state is a democrat who has respect for rule of law with understanding that the judiciary is an independent organ of government different from the executive.

Therefore, adhering strictly to the democratic principle of separation of power is very important to urge the governor to disregard whatever Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso could have discussed with him in relation to  the  recent Abia State High Court judgement.

The compelling order is a judgment  binding on INEC INEC as the Agency of Government who has the mandate to regulate and control political parties and activities in Nigeria.

If senator Rabiu musa KWANKWASO is not happy with the judgement he knows where to go and not the executive arm of the government in disguise

It is worthy to  note that the New Nigeria People’s Party was registered in 2002 and senator Rabiu musa KWANKWASO joined in the year 2022. Since his coming, the party has been in crisis orchestrated by him. Investigation has revealed that the expelled Sen Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso was constantly orchestrating  crisis to make the party unstable to pave way for him to steal the intellectual property of DR. Boniface Aniebonam and by 2024 he wants to hijack the party to become his personal estate.

We are surprised to note that senator Rabiu musa KWANKWASO in his opening remark to addressing new police officers from Abia state he told them to Have Fear of God.

If senator Rabiu musa KWANKWASO have Fear of God kano state would have been in peace, he would not have tried to hijack nnpp and would not have tried to  use it  as his merchandise.

We are still wondering why his invitation to Abia state noting that there are more responsible characters in Nigeria Under the circumstances, Let it be on record that senator KWANKWASO and his unemployed characters have been expelled from NNPP and it is only INEC that has the locus to appeal against the compelling judgment of the court .

And for the avoidance doubts and emphasis INEC is under a compelling order of the court to hand over the administration and management of the party to the board of the new Nigeria people’s party led by Dr Boniface Okechukwu Aniebonam the chairman board board of trustees and life member of the board. Dr aniebonam Boniface okechukwu is equally the founder of the new Nigeria people’s party in accordance with the Constitution of the party 2022 as amended

Senator Rabiu musa KWANKWASO, Buba Galadima and all others in his kitchen cabinet  are not members of the board of trustees known to the judgement of the court

Abia state high court is a court of coordinate jurisdiction with federal high courts of Nigeria.

Senator Rabiu musa KWANKWASO is gone for good noting that he and his unemployed characters and political traders can not even appeal against the compelling judgment.  This simply means that Senator Rabiu musa KWANKWASO etc are gone finally and peace returned to the party
