The gale of high profile defections rocking the ranks of the Kano state chapter of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP on Wednesday November 12, 2025 continued unabated with Hon Sagir Koki, representing Dala Federal Constituency Kano, quitting the party.
His resignation is coming on the heels of that of the member representing Kiru/Bebeji Federal Constituency at the National Assembly, Hon Jibrin Abdulmumin last weekend.
Hon Koki’s resignation is contained in a letter dated November 11, 2025 and addressed to the NNPP chairman in his Zaitawa Ward Koki, in Dala Local Council of Kano state.
Citing the alleged leadership and general crises within the party, particularly at the national level, Hon Koki informed that, his resignation from the party became effective on Tuesday November 11, 2025.
According to him, the festering crisis in the party has tended to frustrate his duties both at the National Assembly and in his Constituency.
This is as he appreciated the NNPP for availing him the needed support and opportunity to realize his political ambition, and serve his people.
He however, did not indicate his next political destination.
The Source reports that, Hon Koki’s exit, brings to about five, the number of serving Kano state Federal Legislators who have parted ways with the NNPP and the Kwankansia movement.
Senator,Kawu Suleiman Sumaila, representing Kano South, Hon Abdullahi Rogo ( Rogo/Karaye Federal Constituency), Hon Kabiru Alhassan Rirum (Rano/Bukunre Federal Constituency) and Hon Abdulmumin had before now defected to the All Progressive Congress, APC.
