A chieftain of New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) has raised the alarm of antics of a shadowy group purporting to have dissolved the National Executive Council (NEC) of the party, saying those found culpable would soon be apprehended by the police.
A communique that was jointly signed by two unknown individuals Umar Jibril and Omolara Johnson at the end of an illegal NEC meeting by the imposters, held on the 27th of May, 2024, made the announcement saying the Dr. Ajuji Ahmed and Dipo Olayokun led NEC has been dissolved.
In a statement issued by one of the chieftains of the party in Abuja on Monday, Mall. Abdulmalik Sulaiman made available to news men urged Nigerians and the relevant authorities to discountenance the statements, saying those that purportedly parading themselves as NNPP NEC are unknown to the party.
“We have been intimated by our numerous supporters and the media of the antics of some sponsored elements unknown to the party purporting to have dissolved the National Executive Council (NEC). This is nothing but wishful thinking carried out by drunken nonentities fanning ambers of discord within the party,”
Suleiman said.
According to the party, “We have been told that these individuals are not acting alone but are being propelled by some disgruntled elements who have since been shown the way of the party because of their series of acts capable of truncating the progressives march of the party,” he said.
Suleiman urged security agents to help the party apprehend those behind the moves saying, that would help in fore stalling a breach of public peace, saying doing otherwise could spell doom for peace and order.
He also described as laughable, the suspension of the only governor elected on the party’s platform, Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf and the expulsion of the National Leader of the party, Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso from the party by the group.
Commenting on it, Suleiman said, “This is the height of illegality and foolery. How can anyone in his right senses contemplate such?
These are the personalities who worked tirelessly for the current renaissance that the party is currently enjoying in the country today.
Suleiman said there is no political party in the country that currently enjoy peaceful atmosphere like NNPP, “Dr. Ajuji led NWC has stabilized the party to the admiration of all party members across the country”
He appeal to the general public to disregard the imposters and call on the media to always verify information from the relevant organs of the party before going public with such.
