NNPP expels Jibrin for alleged anti-party activities

The New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) in Kano State has expelled a member of the House of Representatives, Abdulmumin Jibrin, over alleged anti-party activities.

The NNPP Chairman in the state, NNPP, Hashim Sulaiman-Dungurawa, announced this while briefing journalists on Saturday in Kano.

He said the decision followed Jibrin’s repeated media outbursts against the party and its leadership.

The chairman described the lawmaker as a “weak politician” whose electoral success was only made possible through the Kwankwasiyya movement and NNPP platform, not personal strength.

Jibrin represents Kiru/Bebeji Federal Constituency of Kano State in the National Assembly.

Sulaiman-Dungurawa said: “If he is truly strong politically, he would have won his election on the APC platform, but he failed.

“It was when he joined NNPP through Kwankwasiyya that he became a House of Reps member. Now he is deceiving himself, thinking he is strong.”

He noted that a reconciliation committee had initially been set up to engage Jibrin after his interview on Channels Television, but said a subsequent media outing proved he had “crossed the line.”

“Instead of dialogue, he went further to work against our interests, openly declaring loyalty outside the party. That is why we expelled him. He has no value to add,” he added.

Sulaiman-Dungurawa also accused Jibrin of defaulting on the payment of mandatory party dues and vowed that NNPP would institute legal action to recover the funds.

“We will drag him to court to recover what he owes the party. It is a constitutional requirement for every member to pay dues, but he has consistently failed to do so,” the chairman stated.
