The leadership of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has selected Dr. Kabiru Tia Mohammed as the party’s parliamentary candidate for the Walewale Constituency in the upcoming 2024 general elections.
This selection follows a major development within the party, as Lariba Abudu, the current Member of Parliament for Walewale, officially announced her withdrawal from the NPP primaries.
Abudu’s unexpected decision comes just days before the scheduled National Executive Committee meeting, which is set to deliberate on the party’s course of action on September 11, 2024.
Her exit clears the path for Dr. Kabiru Mohammed, whose unanimous endorsement by the NPP leadership marks a significant turn in the constituency’s political landscape.
This change signals a new chapter for the Walewale Constituency as Dr. Mohammed steps into the race with the full backing of the party.
With the upcoming elections drawing near, all eyes are on the NPP’s newly chosen candidate to see how he will shape the political discourse.
