A faction of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) has dragged the party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Rabiu Kwankwaso, and 13 others to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over alleged misappropriation of over N2 billion.
In a petition signed by the faction’s National Secretary, Oginni Olaposi, the group alleged that the party’s funds were mismanaged with an estimated sum of N2.5 billion unaccounted for.
This amount, according to Olaposi, was generated from the sales of nomination forms, membership subscription fees, and donations before the elections.
