NNPP Announces Sweeping Reforms, Expulsion Of Kwankwassiya Faction

The National Chairman of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), Dr. Agbo Major, has announced the sweeping reforms within the party following its just-concluded National Convention in Lagos.

Addressing a news conference at the party’s national headquarters in Abuja, Dr. Major confirmed the ratification of the new leadership and the official expulsion of Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, Buba Galadima, and the entire Kwankwassiya faction.

The convention, came after months of legal tussles and internal strife.

Dr. Major emphasized that the party’s actions were in full compliance with the Abia High Court judgment delivered on November 1, 2024, which mandated the Board of Trustees (BOT), led by Dr. Boniface Okechukwu Aniebonam, to take control of the party pending the resolution of court cases.

Dr. Major’s decision at the convention included the ratification of all congresses from the ward to zonal levels, expulsion of Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, Buba Galadima, and the Kwankwassiya group following the expiration of the MOU that facilitated their entry into the NNPP.

Others are the election of a new National Working Committee led by Dr. Agbo Major as National Chairman and the rejection of the controversial logo change and reinstatement of the party’s original basket of fruits on the Nigerian map emblem.

The Chairman of the NNPP also confirmed that all necessary documentation has been submitted to INEC, and changes in party records are expected in the coming days.

Dr. Major urged INEC to uphold the rule of law and reflect the party’s new leadership structure in its records.

He emphasized that the NNPP leadership remains focused on consolidating its gains and preparing for the 2027 general election.
