Executives and stakeholders of the New Nigeria Peoples’ Party (NNPP) in Billiri Local Government Area of Gombe State have pledged their loyalty and confidence in the ability of Rambi Ibrahim Ayala to steer the party to greater heights.
Addressing newsmen in Billiri, they alleged that some political contractors in the area are out to disparage and drag the party under Rambi Ibrahim Ayala into the mud to which, they can not allow.
The group had earlier called for the removal of Rambi Ibrahim Ayala from the State chairmanship position of the party.
“This group of political contractors are doing the bidding of their paymasters in the opposition”, the party’s zonal secretary, Mr Billy Garba Tal, stated while reading a communiqué in Billiri issued shortly after it’s enlarged executive and stakeholders meeting.
He said the executive and stakeholders recognize the tireless efforts of Rambi Ayala in repositioning the NNPP in Gombe State.
“These political contractors, in their desperation, ended up committing perjury by forging innocent people’s signatures. We therefore call on security agencies to immediately investigate and prosecute Ambrose Ismaila Mairungu, Amatiga Naboth and Amuga Barde for this heinous criminal act”, they demanded.
Billy explained that the party in Billiri had on February 26th, 2024, suspended Ambrose Ismaila Mairungu for anti party activities, embezzlement and gross misconduct.
He said, “in keeping with article 30 of the party’s constitution, we referred him to a disciplinary committee for further action.
“Sadly, he failed to avail himself before the committee. The party therefore is left with no option than to outrightly expell him and his co-travelers forthwith”, Billy stated.
During the enlarged meeting, Hon Yila Danjuma and ten ward executives were recognized as the new leadership of the party in Billiri LGA to pilot it to greatness.
Amatiga and few members of his group had during a press briefing in Gombe last week demanded the removal of Rambi Ibrahim Ayala from his position as the State Chairman over allegations of imposing a new leadership of the party in Billiri LGA.
