The National Working Committee of the New Nigeria People’s Party, on Sunday, condemned the recent visit of its former presidential candidate, Dr Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, to Governor Alex Otti of Abia State.
At an emergency meeting held at Rockview Hotel, Apapa, Lagos, the NWC described Kwankwaso’s November 9 visit as a “deceptive ploy” linked to a recent Abia State High Court ruling affecting the party’s internal structure.
The crisis rocking the NNPP deepened recently, with a faction of the party expelling Kwankwaso, the Kano State governor, Abba Yusuf and Kwankwasiya group members.
Also, there has been a crisis in the Kano State chapter of the party, with members reportedly asking the governor to stop the overbearing influence of the former presidential candidate of the party.
