Why I Dumped NNPP – Gwarzo

The former Deputy Governor of Kano State, Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, has tendered his resignation from the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), citing recent shifts in the political landscape as his reason for leaving.

Gwarzo had resigned from the administration of Governor Abba Yusuf on Friday.

In a resignation letter dated March 29, 2026, and addressed to the Chairman of the party in Gwarzo Ward, Gwarzo Local Government Area, the former Deputy said his decision takes immediate effect.
