The crisis rocking the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) took a new dimension as some aggrieved state chairmen of the party condemned the alleged sub­terranean moves by the party’s former Presidential candidate, Dr. Rabiu Kwankwaso, to hijack the party’s machinery from its founder, Dr. Boniface Aniebo­nam.

Briefing journalists in Ado-Ekiti, Olayinka Dada, Ek­iti State chairman of the party, accused the members of NWC of making themselves free tools in the hands of Kwakwanso to sabotage the collective interest of the party .

He hinted that the NNPP lead­ers from 10 states have passed a vote of no-confidence against the members of the Abba Kawu-led National Working Committee (NWC) for allegedly working in cahoots with Kwankwaso to car­ry out the sinister plan.

He expressed dismay over the desperation of Dr. Kwankwaso in destroying the political party, which once gave him and his foot-soldiers fortress in the last polls declaring that they have rejected the NWC leadership be­cause they had failed in manag­ing the party’s affairs well.

Dada, who doubles as the spokesman, Forum of NNDP State Chairmen, said the party became suspicious when Kwank­waso hurriedly held secret meet­ing with the All Progressives Con­gress (APC) President and winner of the poll, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu in France, days after the poll, even when other serious po­litical parties were collating evi­dence of electoral malfeasance to challenge the results as declared by the Independent National Elec­toral Commission (INEC) .

Part of Kwakwanso’s sins, as alleged, was his deliberate ac­tion to starve the party of funds during the last presidential poll.

According to him, Kwank­waso’s singular action, coupled with other inequities noticed be­fore, during and after the Presi­dential poll, allegedly confirmed that he (Kwankwaso) sold out .

The state chairmen include those of Ekiti, Enugu, Rivers, Zamfara, Kastina, Kaduna, Ni­ger, among others.
