DAILY NIGERIAN recalls that in a recent interview with an online media outlet, DCL, Mr Jibrin had openly declared his intention to leave the NNPP.
Consequently, on September 6, the state NNPP chairman, Hashimu Dungurawa, announced Mr Jibrin’s dismissal at a press conference in Kano, citing his repeated media outbursts against the party and its leadership.
Mr Dungurawa described the Kiru/Bebeji federal lawmaker as a “weak politician” who rode on the back of the Kwankwasiyya movement and the NNPP platform to win elections, rather than his personal strength.
Speaking on Thursday when he received elders and traditional title holders from the Kiru/Bebeji constituency on a solidarity visit at his Kano residence, Mr Kwankwaso said the expulsion was both necessary and timely.
“This decision on the lawmaker (Jibrin) is a necessary one because this movement is very important to us as it is our life and that of our supporters. By extension, it is the life of our state and the country at large.
“Any movement is bound to fail without a good leadership and we do not want this movement to fail. Most of the time, it is proper to do away with disloyal followers to enable the movement to be successful.
“You are aware of all what happened but most importantly, we support the NNPP Chairman, Hashimu Dungurawa, for taking the decision on behalf of the party, because we believe it is a good move towards reforming the party,” he said.
The NNPP leader further disclosed that the party would present a stronger candidate to replace Mr Kofa in the 2027 general elections.
“When the election time comes, we will carefully nominate a better candidate, who will represent the good people of the constituency, the party and its members well in the assembly,” Mr Kwankwaso assured.If You’re Reading From Phoenix Click On Read Original To Read Full Article
