NNPP Urged To Apologize To Founder, Aniebonam Over Expulsion

The National Working Committee (NWC) of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) has been advised to withdraw its expulsion order on the party’s founder, Boniface Aniebonam.

Speaking during a press briefing in Lagos on Sunday, the Chairman of the National Peace Committee, Azubike Anazor, asked the NWC to write a letter of apology to Aniebonam over his expulsion from the party.

Anazor stated that Aniebonam deserved due honour at all times as the founder of the party and the chairman of its Board of Trustees (BoT).

According to him, the committee discovered that the recent purported expulsion of Aniebonam from the party was considered by his supporters as an affront of unequal proportions.

He asserted that the expulsion of Aniebonam was a flagrant overthrow of the NNPP Constitution, which confers “life membership” on him in the party’s BoT.

Anazor also stated that the NNPP acting National Chairman, Abba Ali, should broker an urgent meeting between Aniebonam and the party’s presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso.

He added that follow-up meetings should be held between the duo thereafter to the exclusion of a third party, which will induce confidence and herald a return to constitutionality, order, and democratic rule in the party.

He also stated that the NWC and the National Executive Committee (NEC) should suspend any move to amend or recommend amendments to any provisions of the party’s constitution.

Recall that the Rabiu Kwankwaso-led faction of the party expelled Aniebonam, the National Publicity Secretary Agbo Major, and others over alleged anti-party activities.
