Appointment
By Aminu Garko
Kano, Abdullahi Zubairu Abiya has emerged as the acting State Chairman of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) in Kano State, following the sacking of the former Chairman, Hashimu Dungurawa.
The NNPP State Executive Committee endorsed Abiya’s appointment at an emergency meeting held at the party’s secretariat in Kano.
The decision was announced by Yusuf Mukhtar, the party’s Assistant Legal Adviser, citing the NNPP constitution
The development followed the submission of a formal resolution on Dungurawa’s sacking by the Dawakin Tofa Local Government Executive Committee, which accused him of anti-party activities.
Abiya pledged the party’s commitment to justice, loyalty to national leader Sen. Rabiu Kwankwaso, and support for Gov. Abba Yusuf.
Dungurawa has however insisted that he remained the bonafide Chairman of the party in the state, describing his alleged expulsion as null, void and of no effect.
