Don’t frustrate our petition, steer clear of our party – NNPP cautions APC, Abiodun

By Christiana Ekpa

The New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) has advised the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State to steer clear of the party.
The party gave this warning on Thursday.
It noted that the need to warn the APC and Abiodun became imperative due to their alleged moves to cause confusion in the NNPP.
Southwest Zonal Publicity Secretary of the party, Hon. Kilamuwaye Badmus, made these disclosures in a statement made available to journàlists on Thursday.
He alleged that both the APC and Abiodun are trying to frustrate the ongoing petition against the APC, Dapo Abiodun and Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) over the omission of the party name on the ballot papers used in conducting the March 18th governorship election in the state.
While speaking further, he said he had never, for any reason, written an apology letter to the former Chairman of the party in the state, Comrade Sunday Olaposi Oginni.
He spoke further by saying that the action taken on the ongoing matter at the tribunal is a collective fight to rescue the party in the state.
“I want to also call on the APC-led administration under Governor Dapo Abiodun to stay clear of the NNPP matter, which they are trying to dabble in, to frustrate the ongoing petition against the APC, Dapo Abiodun and the INEC for the omission of our party name on the ballot papers used in conducting the March 18th election.
“Thank you very much the good people of Ogun NNPP; His Excellency Olufemi Ajadi Oguntoyinbo, NNPP Ogun state guber candidate; the zonal southwest leadership led by Prince Ayoade; NNPP national executive council led by Ag. Abba Kawu Ali and our indefatigable national leader, His Excellency Senator Dr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, for their unrelenting efforts to rescue Ogun state NNPP from the hands of political armed robbers,” he said.
