The New Nigerian Peoples Party (NNPP) has announced plans to make significant decisions at its upcoming National Executive Council (NEC) meeting.
As the ruling party in Kano State, the NNPP is already strategizing ahead of the 2027 general elections.
In a statement issued by the National Publicity Secretary, Ladipo Johnson, the party revealed that the critical NEC meeting, scheduled for August 28, will focus on key issues including the upcoming congresses and national convention, a review of the recent bye-election, and efforts to boost mass mobilisation and register new members nationwide.
The statement said the party will also deliberate on the ongoing constitutional review with a view to presenting a position on critical concerns towards safeguarding the nation’s democracy.
However, the statement clarified that notwithstanding insinuations in the public domain or opinions by analysts regarding permutations ahead 2027 elections, the party remained open to a lot of intervening political variables which are essentially tied to its founding principles and values.
The statement noted, “Specifically, on the various insinuations by analysts and public opinions on where NNPP stands ahead of the 2027 general election, our position remains what we have stated and restated over time.
”And this is to the effect that politics is dynamic but that our actions and decisions must be within the context of principles and values. The question of national interest is also crucial.
”So to this extent, NNPP is still open to the three options we have talked about in the past: to form a kind of alliance or coalition, remain as NNPP and prosecute the election as individual entity or support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for re-election.
”These three options will be discussed at our NEC meeting on the 28th of August 2025, and to this extent, we appeal to all our members to remain calm as the ultimate decisions would be in the best interest of the people.”
In the meantime, NNPP called on its members to participate actively in the ongoing continuous voter registration to either register or review their registration and be ready for the nationwide mass mobilisation and registration of new members that is due to begin soon.
