NNPP Dissolves Kano Executive Committees Amid Governor’s Rumoured Move To APC
  • PublishedJanuary 2, 2026

‎The National Working Committee of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) has announced the dissolution of the Kano State executive committees from the state to the ward level.

This was contained in a statement by the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Ladipo Johnson.

According to Johnson, the action was in accordance with the constitution of the party.

He added that the caretaker committees to act in the interim would be announced shortly.

The decision came amid tension in the party following reports of a planned defection by the Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, to the All Progressives Congress (APC), a move strongly opposed by the party’s national leader, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso.
