In a dramatic twist, key members of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in Kano have rejected the leadership of Rabiu Kwankwaso, citing dissatisfaction with his handling of party affairs.
The rebellion comes amid a wave of defections to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), shaking the political landscape of Kano.
As more prominent NNPP figures align with the APC, questions arise about the future of Kwankwaso’s influence in the state.
This political turmoil could mark a turning point in Kano’s power dynamics, with the APC poised to gain significant ground.
