Meanwhile, another faction of NNPP led by Agbo Major, has a tendered unreserved apology to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over what it termed ‘reckless’ statement made by its erstwhile presidential candidate, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.
The faction, in a statement on Sunday, warned Kwankwaso to stop parading himself as member or National Leader of New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) founded and registered by Dr. Boniface Okechukwu Aniebonam as far back as year 2002.
In the statement signed by the National Secretary of the party, Comrade Oginni Olaposi, NNPP reiterated that Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso and his cohorts had been expelled and should refrain from using the name of the party to perpetrate evils and unwarranted attacks on the presidency.
It reads further: “The recent outburst and attacks on the personality of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu by Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso and his expelled group are views and positions of his Kwankwasia group and not that of New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP)”.
“Kwankwaso as a political drowning man who recently, on the 3rd of April, 2025 to be precise, lost heavily at the FCT High court Abuja in his attempt to use the judiciary to hijack NNPP from Dr. Boniface Okechukwu Aniebonam led Board of Trustees (BoT) and Dr Agbo Gilbert Major led National Working Committee (NWC), has become a wounded dog to every perceived imaginary political opponents.
“We hereby tender an unreserved apology to the President of Federal Republic of Nigeria, His Excellency, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the entire APC family led by His Excellency Dr Abdulahi Umar Ganduje for the reckless statement of Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso our erstwhile presidential candidate for using the name of our great party to insult the president and the APC led federal government of Nigeria.
“All these people, including but not limited to Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, Elder Buba Galadima, and the defunct NWC members of NNPP led by Dr Ahmed Ajuji are not members of NNPP any longer.
“They have been expelled and ratified by the Abia State High Court and the Federal Capital Territory High Court, Abuja declaratory judgements”.
