The Founder and National Leader of the NNPP, Dr Boniface Aniebonam, has debunked a claim by Alhaji Buba Galadima that the Federal Government is fighting the NNPP government in Kano State.
In a statement in Lagos on Sunday, Aniebonam said there was need for Nigerians to guard against unverifiable statements against the Federal Government.
“With the challenges facing the nation, all leaders in Nigeria must be mindful of their statements.
“Nigeria belongs to all of us, and if there is an uprising, we will all be affected; thus, the need to be cautious in our utterances.
“The NNPP is not against valid criticisms of government policies but we are against individuals who tend to use platforms they do not belong to, to peddle lies,” Aniebonam said.
Galadima had, in an interview with the Channels Television on Thursday, said the Federal Government was fighting the NNPP Government of Gov. Abba Yusuf in Kano State.
Aniebonam said in the statement that Galadima, alongside some others, was expelled long ago from the NNPP and could not speak for the party.
“He ought to have known that there is a huge difference between NNPP and the Kwankwassiya movement he runs with Sen. Rabiu Kwankwaso.
“NNPP has long terminated relationship with that movement.
“There is need to differentiate between the Kwankwassiya movement and the NNPP.
“Galadima and others have long been expelled from the NNPP at the expiration of terms of the MOU that brought us and the movement together and, therefore, can no longer speak for us in any capacity.”
He urged Nigerians to disregard the claim by Galadima.
“NNPP, as a party, is not under any form of attack in Kano State,” he said. (NAN).
