Dungurawa, who was reacting on Monday to the extension of suspension time of Kwankwaso and Yusuf, by one Umar Jibrin and Omalara Johnson in a communique they signed, said those behind are not bonafide members of the party.
“Let me be clear to you that these people who said they have suspended Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf and Dr. Rabiu Kwankwaso were long ago expelled from the Party for several anti-party activities and connivance with opposition to create problems in the NNPP.
“You can see that there is a missing link in their actions, and the missing link is that as a party that has only one single Governor and the Presidential Candidate of the Party, who nurtured it to its present position, but you are saying you suspended them, can this make any sense to anybody,” he queried.
Dungurawa alleged that he knows who are behind the crisis in the NNPP, “are those opposition who are afraid of the emergence of Kwankwaso as the next President of Nigeria, in 2027, God willing”.
He assured that the party remains one of the biggest emerging parties in the country, a party that will present the next President of the nation, adding ”we know those who are behind the purported suspension, the forces sponsored by may be the ruling government and the ruling chairman of APC.”
On continuous provision of security to the deposed Emir Aminu Ado Bayero, Dungurawa worried that “what is happening in Kano is surprising that you give a cover of security to only an expelled Emir leaving a large chunk of Kano people’s suffering from the insecurity the state is facing them.
He said, “Today, they deployed DSS, Military and Police around Aminu Ado Bayero, but we should tell them that enough is enough. They should know the mandate to appoint an Emir is that of the Governor, no one else, they should allow the state to have the complete peace it deserves to have.”
Recall that the National Executive Committee of the factional NNPP had affirmed the six-month suspension of Yusuf and the expulsion of Kwankwaso from the party.
The resolution was contained in a communique issued Sunday and jointly signed by Jibrin and Johnson following the NEC meeting held on May 27 2024.
