Ganduje maintained that the crisis rocking the NNPP was compounded by the inability of Kwankwaso to maintain a standing principle in party politics over the years.
He stressed that the reign of Kwankwaso as the national leader of the NNPP was “exploitive and deceptive while commending the return of Jika to the APC as a step in the right direction.
What Ganduje said about NNPP
Ganduje’s comment reads in part:
“He is returning to a party that is very progressive and focused. He is coming from a party that used to be decent and highly respected until it was hijacked and polluted by the Kwankwasiyya group.”
He further lamented the poor performance of the APC in Gombe state in the last election while promising to ensure the inclusiveness of all party stalwarts in his decision-making.
