The New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, has condemned the ongoing harassment and attempts to arrest the Director-General of Media and Publicity for the Kano State Government, Mallam Sanusi Bature Dawakin-Tofa.
In a statement issued on Wednesday in Kano, the NNPP National Publicity Secretary, Ladipo Johnson, said that police authorities, apparently acting on directives from Abuja, are persistently making efforts to arrest Dawakin-Tofa despite a court injunction restraining the Nigeria Police from such action.
Johnson clarified that the repeated attempts to arrest Dawakin-Tofa—along with the potential harassment of his family members—stem from a petition allegedly written against him by former Kano State Governor and National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Abdullahi Ganduje, or individuals acting on his behalf.
