The New Nigeria People’s Party in Kano State has assured of a free, fair and credible local government election scheduled to hold later in the year.
Its Chairman, Hashimu Dungurawa, gave the assurance when he spoke with newsmen in Kano on Tuesday.
“As a democratic party whose ideals are people-oriented, we will ensure a hitch-free, free and fair local government election later this year,” Alhaji Dungurawa said.

He said part of the democratic disposition of the NNPP administration in the state was that it allowed all the All Progressives Congress local government chairmen to serve out their tenure.
“When we inherited the APC Local Government Chairmen from the previous administration, we allowed them to continue in office and gave them all their due recognition till their tenure ends soon,” he said.
Dungurawa said the NNPP government extended the same gesture to officers in public service whom they inherited from the APC government, including the then Head of the Civil Service.
He thanked the people of the state for their support and prayers before, during and after the Supreme Court judgment that affirmed Kabir Yusuf as the duly elected executive governor of the state.
He assured that the NNPP administration would continue to deliver dividends of democracy to the people of state so as to enhance their well being.
Such dividends, he said, included provision of quality education, healthcare, water supply, roads as well as security of lives and property.
