The Kano chapter of the New Nigeria Peoples Party has suspended Abdullahi Bichi, secretary to the state government; and Muhammad Diggol, the state’s commissioner of transportation.
Announcing the development on Monday, Hashimu Dungurawa, NNPP chair in Kano, said the suspension was sequel to multiple complaints from ward and LG leadership. “The duo were suspended because they disrespected the party and its leadership — the party cannot tolerate actions that undermine its leadership and structure,” Dungurawa said.
“After receiving formal complaint letters from their wards, and upon confirmation of the allegations by the local leadership, we had no other option but to take this decisive step.”Sulaiman Dambatta, NNPP chair in Kano north, also defended the allegations against the officials. The suspension of the duo comes 11 days before the Kano LGA elections which has been slated for October 26.Senator: Some politicians fuelling drug abuse | Their homes are storage for narcotics
