Reps member Kofa expelled from NNPP, accused of failing to pay party dues

Abdulmumin Jibrin is expelled for repeated media attacks and unpaid dues, with NNPP planning legal action to recover owed funds, according to Kano State chairman.

  • On Saturday, the New Nigeria People's Party Kano State chapter expelled Abdulmumin Jibrin Kofa, House of Representatives member for Kiru/Bebeji Federal Constituency, Hashim Sulaiman Dungurawa announced during a Kano press briefing.
  • After Jibrin's Channels Television interview, a reconciliation committee was formed but his later media statements endorsing President Bola Tinubu and declaring loyalty outside NNPP led to his expulsion.
  • Dungurawa described Jibrin as a `weak politician` whose success relied on the Kwankwasiyya movement and vowed to pursue legal action over unpaid mandatory party dues.
  • Coming barely 24 hours after his hint to quit, Abdulmumin Jibrin Kofa's expulsion escalates tensions in Kano as Kano State NNPP insists Kwankwasiyya remains solid behind Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso despite a potential return to the All Progressives Congress .
  • Previously, Abdulmumin Jibrin Kofa defected from All Progressives Congress to New Nigeria People's Party in 2022, and his endorsement of President Bola Tinubu signals possible realignment before 2027.
