ALLIANCE WITH PDP; OTHERS ARE FALSE — NNPP

Babatunji Wusu –

The alleged coalition of the New Nigeria Peoples Party and six other political parties, known as the “Coalition of Concerned Political Parties,” has been characterized as phony and false by Olaposi Oginni, the party’s national secretary.

The public is being urged to ignore the NNPP’s alleged partnership with the People’s Democratic Party and the other six parties, as Oginni emphasized that the party has not authorized any combination with any political party.

This was stated in a letter he wrote to the PDP Chairman of the Board of Trustees, which was made accessible to reporters on Sunday night.

The NNPP’s interests were not being represented by the PDP, and the party secretary warned them to quit doing business with them.

He further said, “I have the collective instruction of Dr. Boniface Okechukwu Aniebonam, the Founder and Life Member of the Board of Trustees of the NNPP, Dr. Temitope Aluko, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the NNPP, and Engr. Abdullahi Babayo, the Secretary of the Board of Trustees of the NNPP and The National Chairman, Dr Agbo Gilbert Major, all of the NNPP’s National Secretariat, Winlands Plaza, Wuse Zone 4, FCT Abuja.

“This letter therefore serves as a formal caveat to your party (PDP) and others by notifying you that the NNPP has not, and is not authorising any coalition with your party or any other political party for that matter as is being speculated and published.

“In the circumstance, to do otherwise and proceed with the purported coalition in any matter with Sen. Kwankwaso in the name of the NNPP, will be serious hypocrisy on your part and feigning ignorance of a glaring and well-established fact that Sen. Kwankwaso is not a member of the NNPP, and he has no locus or authority to engage in any form of negotiation and/or coalition on behalf of our great party (NNPP).

“The relevant regulatory agency, security agency of the Federal Government and the general public will be notified immediately to ensure that your party and Sen. Kwankwaso do not cause any further damage to our party and to prevent any avoidable breakdown of law and order, besides needless litigations.

He urged the PDP leadership not to get entangled in the “manipulating scheme or illegal plans being sold out by some expelled members in the likes of Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso under the guise of being a former Presidential Candidate of NNPP which is laughable”.
