‘Don’t Drag Me Into It’ – Kwankwaso Reacts To NNPP Crisis

The presidential aspirant of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has chosen to remain silent on the internal crisis currently affecting his party in Kano State.

When approached by journalists at his residence on Miller Road, Kano, on Tuesday, Kwankwaso declined to comment on the issue.

The leader of the Kwankwasiyya movement said, “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 continues to speak. Reach out to him.”

According to Daily Trust, tensions within the party have escalated, leading to the suspension of the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Abdullahi Baffa Bichi, and the Commissioner of Transportation, Muhammad Diggol.

The party chairman, Hashim Sulaiman Dungurawa, explained that the suspension was due to allegations of disrespect toward the party, abuse of power, and disloyalty.

The suspension occurred shortly after Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf led a reconciliation effort between the SSG and members of his constituency.

Bichi, the SSG, also distanced himself from a recent campaign encouraging a split between Governor Yusuf and Kwankwaso, which operates under the slogan ‘Abba Tsaya da Kafarka,’ meaning ‘Abba stand on your own.’
