A member of the Kano State House of Assembly representing Sumaila constituency, Hon. Zubairu Hamza Masu, has dumped the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) for the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Hon. Masu, in a resignation letter addressed to the Speaker of the House, Rt. Hon Ismail Falgore, cited factionalisation and litigations rocking the NNPP as his major reason for leaving the party.
The Speaker, who read the letter on the floor of the House during Monday’s plenary, announced Masu’s resignation from the party effective from May 12, 2025, pledging his total loyalty to the APC leadership at the ward, state, and national levels.
The lawmaker further explained that several individuals from both the State and national levels were claiming leadership positions within the NNPP, mentioning Dr. Suleiman Hashim Dungurawa and Senator Mas’ud El-Jibrin Doguwa, at state level, while Dr. Ahmed Ajuji and Dr. Agbo Major were claiming chairmanship at national level, with litigations in the court suffocating the party.
