Former Kano State Governor Senator Ibrahim Shekarau has acknowledged his departure from Kwankwaso\u2019s New Nigeria People\u2019s Party (NNPP), albeit he has not made it known to which party he is switching.<\/p>\n
At the Kano Foundation headquarters on BUK Road on Monday, Shekarau addressed a mob of supporters and accused the former governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of not only betraying him but also demeaning him.<\/p>\n
The former governor reflected on his interactions with Kwankwaso during his brief time in the NNPP and noticed with dismay that he was handed the forms to run for the Senate alone, abandoning his team of supporters to live in poverty.<\/p>\n
He said on 5th May 2022 long before he and Kwankwaso joined NNPP, \u201cI personally met him at his country home and discussed extensively my decisions to follow him to his new party and he expressed deep happiness\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd still on 11-5-2022 I still met Kwankwaso because since our last meeting we were not able to meet, and I reminded him of a proposal I submitted to him during our last meeting\u201d.<\/p>\n
