The crisis rocking the New Nigeria People’s Party, NNPP in Kano State took a new turn on Sunday following the exit of two members from the Kwankwasiyya Movement.
The exit is coming amid moves by the movement to ensure that its leader, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso wins the 2027 presidential election.
The two Rep Members, Aliyu Sani Madaki Gini (Kano Municipal) and Alhassan Rurum (Rano/Kibiya/Bunkure) were strong allies of the former governor.
DAILY POST reports that Madakin Gini who is the Deputy Minority Leader of the House of Representatives announced his decision to distance himself from the movement on Sunday while addressing his constituents in Kano.
“From today, I, Aliyu Sani Madaki, no longer associate with the Kwankwasiyya Movement.
“They have dismissed us, saying we lack support, but we are not afraid to stand alone. Let it be known—there is no one I cannot confront in the Kwankwasiyya Movement from top to bottom, if needed,” he added.
He accused the movement of saying that they were not useful.
“That we don’t have support. They should understand that there is no one within Kwankwasiyya that I cannot face head-on,” he said.
He also alleged that some political forces were trying to weaken the incumbent Governor, Abba Yusuf
“My message to the governor is clear. They are trying to weaken him.
“I am urging him to stand firm; otherwise, he may be blindsided by those around him. I have insights into plans against him”, he said.
