From Ahmad SAKA, Bauchi
Bauchi State Governor Senator Bala Muhammed Abdulkadir have explained that he received the blessing of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the state to run for president in the 2023 election.
Bala stated this today Monday in Bauchi when he receives coalition of groups including the National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN), National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), National Union of Bauchi State Students (NUBASS), Bauchi state traders and artisans associations and association of Achaba and Keke NAPEPS at the government house to present letter of endorsement to the Governor as next Nigeria President after President Buhari.
Governor said since his first endorsement few weeks ago by the northern youth leaders forum, he commenced consultation and the state working committee of the party had given him ‘a nod of approval’.
He said he was contented with his present position as a governor but he is always ready to serve the country in any capacity.
The governor also said that after consulting the party, he would consult traditional rulers and clerics before making pronouncement on his aspiration.
“Some of you have seen me last week, going round to meet former ministers, senators and other leaders to discuss it. But I have to consult traditional rulers and ulamas too because I need their support”.
leader of the coalition and State chairman of the National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN) Adamu Dimis told the governor that their endorsement was in consideration of the numerous projects he executed in the state within few years.
He said Nigeria needs the likes of Bala Mohammed to record the desired developments.
