<p>A faction within the Peoples Redemption Party has publicly criticized the party’s purported national chairman, Dr. Hakeem Baba Ahmed, accusing him of engaging in unauthorized alliances with opposition politicians, according to a statement delivered at a press briefing in Kano.</p><div class="evd1weEe" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>Speaking at the Kano Press Centre of the Nigeria Union of Journalists on Monday, Comrade Abdulmajid Yakubu Daudu, who is the National Chairman of PRP-Vanguard, alleged that a Kaduna-based faction of the party recently conducted what he described as a “sham convention” in Abuja, producing a new leadership not recognized by his group.</p>
<p>Daudu claimed that the faction, referred to as the “Falalu faction,” subsequently announced an open invitation to opposition politicians—many of whom he described as “discredited” to join the party, a move he said contradicts the ideological foundation of the PRP. He characterized the development as “a travesty and total abuse” of the party’s constitution and historical identity.</p>
<p>According to Daudu, the PRP is rooted in socialist principles and was established to advance the interests of the working class rather than serve as a platform for political realignment among elite actors. He emphasized that the party’s mission is to promote socialism in Nigeria, not to replace one capitalist structure with another.</p><div class="2hWQ2YnT" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>He further argued that Dr. Hakeem Baba Ahmed, whom he claimed was not originally a member of the party, lacks the legitimacy to lead it or redefine its direction. Daudu accused him of acting in ways that are “insensitive” to party members and described his leadership style as “authoritarian and feudal.”</p>

<p>In his remarks, Daudu also criticized what he termed the “Kaduna Mafia,” alleging that the group represents entrenched political interests aligned with the ruling class rather than grassroots movements. He claimed that such actors are complicit in sustaining the current economic system, which he linked to widespread poverty and inequality in Nigeria.</p>
<p>Referencing the administration of Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Daudu accused the federal government of presiding over worsening economic conditions, claiming that millions of Nigerians are facing hardship under current policies. He alleged that the same political elite are attempting to reposition themselves through infiltration of smaller parties like the PRP.</p>
<p>Daudu stated that the PRP is currently involved in legal proceedings over the leadership dispute and warned potential political defectors against associating with what he described as an illegitimate faction. “The PRP is not for sale,” he said, adding that any attempts to co-opt the party would be resisted.</p>
<p>Addressing calls for reconciliation within the Ø§ÙØØ²Ø¨, Daudu questioned the basis for unity, asking whether it would be built on “illegality or co-option.” He also raised concerns about the preservation of the party’s socialist ideology and the status of its grassroots structures nationwide.</p>
<p>He maintained that the PRP cannot be managed as a “personal fiefdom,” insisting that its legacy as a mass-based movement must be preserved. He accused the rival faction of being disconnected from ordinary Nigerians and more focused on elite patronage during election cycles.</p>
<p>Daudu invoked the legacy of Aminu Kano, the party’s founding figure during Nigeria’s Second Republic, noting that the PRP was conceived as a “party of the talakawa (masses)” and remains committed to that vision.</p>
<p>He reaffirmed the faction’s commitment to socialist transformation in Nigeria, criticizing what he described as decades of failure under a “neocolonial capitalist system.” He called for intensified grassroots mobilization and pledged that the PRP would continue its struggle through legal, political, and media channels ahead of the 2027 general elections.</p>
