The New Nigerian Peoples Party (NNPP) in Kano State has cautioned the Kano State House of Assembly to proceed carefully over moves to remove the elected deputy governor of the state.

The party issued the warning in a statement on Thursday, signed by its Publicity Secretary, Ibrahim Karaye.

In the statement, the party said that, considering the current political realignments and defections, the Assembly should recognise that an elected official cannot be forced to take decisions that go against his principles.

The NNPP also urged the Kano State Government to avoid actions that could lead to an unnecessary political crisis in the state.

According to the party, the political environment in Kano is already sensitive, and any action that could worsen the situation should be avoided.

The party further stated that its members are law-abiding citizens who believe strongly in the rule of law.

It therefore called for its members to be allowed to express their political views freely without facing prejudice or intimidation.

Recall that on Thursday, the Kano State House of Assembly initiated impeachment proceedings against Deputy Governor Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo over allegations of gross misconduct, abuse of office, and breach of public trust.
