The Chairman of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in Kano State, Hashemi Dungurawa, has described the resignation of Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje as the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as a disgrace to the people of Kano.
Speaking to The Bureau Newspaper on Thursday, Dungurawa alleged that Ganduje was compelled to step down due to mounting allegations of corruption, particularly during the party’s internal leadership processes.
“This is not a voluntary resignation. Ganduje was forced out due to serious financial misconduct allegations that embarrassed the APC and the people of Kano,” Dungurawa said.
He argued that the resignation, which followed weeks of speculation and internal pressure within the ruling party, further exposed the lack of integrity and transparency in APC’s leadership ranks.
“Ganduje’s involvement in corrupt practices has been widely reported. His resignation is not only overdue but also an indictment on those who promoted his elevation in the first place,” he added.
Dungurawa insisted that the people of Kano deserve better representation on the national stage, not individuals whose reputations have been tainted by scandals.
“We are proud people, and what has happened is an embarrassment. This resignation should serve as a lesson to leaders who think they can escape accountability,” the NNPP leader said.
Reports had earlier indicated that Ganduje, a former governor of Kano State, was asked to step aside ahead of the APC’s national convention amid internal agitation and ethical concerns raised by party stakeholders from the North-Central zone.
