Abdulmumin Jibrin, the member representing Kiru/Bebeji constituency, has revealed that he might dump the New Nigeria People’s Party, NNPP.
According to him, his defection shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone.
Speaking to DCL Hausa, the lawmaker said he is old enough to take a stand for himself.
He said: “Even the party,NNPP,itself said it is open to negotiations with other parties, so it is not necessary that I follow the direction of the party.
“I am old enough to take a stand on what is best for me,” the lawmaker added.
Mr Jibrin, however, said he will continue to respect his political leader, Rabiu Kwankwaso even if they are no longer in the same party.
“Even if I am not together with Kwankwaso, I will never insult him, just the way I have never insulted Ganduje even when we parted ways.
“I have never requested for any contract even though I contributed to the success of NNPP in Kano state. Kwankwasiyya has stood for me, but I have also stood for it,” he added.
When asked about the possibility of him dumping the ruling party in Kano State Mr Jibrin said, “Nothing is impossible. I can remain in NNPP, I can go back to APC, I can join ADC or PDP or even PRP. I can go to wherever I like. Any time I decide, I will make my position known.”
