NNPP reiterates commitment to rule of law
He said NNPP strongly supports the rule of law and the judiciary, disapproving of any attacks against the judicial system.
According to him, the tribunal and appeal court rulings that Governor Abba Yusuf is not a registered member of the NNPP arose from non-compliance with our party’s constitution.
His statement reads in part:
“The misfortune of the NNPP is attributed to Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso’s high-handedness, preventing party members from registering according to the law.”
