Galadima can’t speak for NNPP, FG not fighting party – Aniebonam

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 a 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 Channels Television on Thursday, said the Federal Government was fighting the NNPP government ofGov. Abba Yusuf in Kano State.

Aniebonam said in the statement that Galadima, along with 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 the NNPP and the Kwankwassiya movement he runs with Sen. Rabiu Kwankwaso.

“NNPP has a long-terminated relationship with that movement.

“There is a need to differentiate betweenthe Kwankwassiya movement and the NNPP.

“Galadima and othershave long been expelled from the NNPP at the expiration of terms of the MOU that broughtus 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.
