2027: NNPP denies joining coalition, says no deal with other parties

n n

The New Nigeria Peoples Party has warned the public against dealing with impostors parading themselves as candidates and leaders of the party in the build-up to the 2027 general elections.

n

The party also said that it was yet to join any coalition or working arrangement with any other political party ahead of the 2027 elections.

n

The NNPP made its position known in a statement issued on Tuesday in Abuja by the party’s Founder, Dr Boniface Aniebonam.

n

“It has come to the knowledge of NNPP leadership that certain individuals, who have been expelled from our fold, confirmed by court judgments and INEC, have been parading themselves as leaders of the party with the intent to extort money from unsuspecting political parties and candidates,” he said.

n

While describing the party as “independent,” Aniebonam urged anybody or entity that had been “duped” by the impostors to seek a refund from them (the impostors).

n

“All contestants, coalitions, or political parties who may have been duped should go back to the impostors for a refund of the money paid as contestants’ fees or for alliance.

n

“The authentic NNPP with basket of fruits logo is not a member of any coalition. It stands to reason that as a national political party, we are independent,” Aniebonam stated.

n

According to him, the NNPP will announce certain decisions with regard to strategic alliances with any of the political parties for purposes of the 2027 general elections if there is a need to.

n

“For the avoidance of doubt, the following people have the mandate of NNPP as the authentic leaders to speak and take informed decisions on behalf of the party.

n

“These are the recognised officials by INEC.

n

“The officers include Dr Boniface Aniebonam, Founder and Chairman, Board of Trustees; Dr Agbo Major, National Chairman; Mr Oginni Olaposi, National Secretary; Prince Toyese, National Treasurer; and Aisha Kade Onyia, National Woman Leader,” Aniebonam stated.
