The South West chapter of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), has rejected the new logo adopted by the party, stating that the question bordering NNPP members, stakeholders, and other party faithful in the country and in the Diaspora is why changing the logo the party has adorned for over 20 years.
The party in a release by the South West chapter of the NNPP on Sunday and signed by its Public Relations Officer, Mr Kilamuwaye Badmus, insisted that the plan to change the NNPP’s logo was an overnight move which is not acceptable to the members of the party in the South West.
“The plan to change the logo was not officially passed to the members to seek their opinions and so it cannot stand the test of time”, S/W NNPP said.
The party therefore called on Governor Abba Yusuff, National Assembly members elected under NNPP to retain the victorious logo that gave them victory in the last election.
“What happened to over two decades logo of our great party, the NNPP, with a patriotic inscription of Nigeria map with basket of fruits, which connotes food security for the masses, it is when there is no hunger, that people can think of any other things.And why the changing so sudden to Kwankwassiya colour of red white red without exercising the party’s internal mechanism?.
“Enough of this political contractors that believe in party’s trading and ideology of self imposition.
“The exclusive urgency of NEC meeting and National mini convention of our great party shows that the Kwankwasiyya group led by Dr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso is working to hijack the party structure by announcing the trade mark of Kwankwasiyya colour to finally commercialize and to have full control of the party structure in the country”, Kilamuwaye said in the release.
