Mohammed Abubakar, governor of Bauchi state, has suffered three defeats in the space of two weeks — with another one looming.

The governor, who is seeking reelection under the All Progressives Congress (APC), was first defeated during the March 9 governorship poll. He garnered 465,453 votes to come second to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP’s) Bala Mohammed who got 469,512 votes.

He then got a temporary reload when a federal high court in Abuja granted his request, suspending the collation of the remaining results of the election until the determination of a suit he filed. But for how long?

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) continued with the supplementary election in the state and  Abubakar was again defeated. The PDP candidate polled 6,376 votes to leave the governor following closely with 5,117 votes.

Back to the court case, at its sitting on Monday, the federal high court struck out the governor’s application seeking to stop the collation of the remaining result — in Tafawa Balewa LGA.

Although the result of the remaining LGA has not been announced, there is a slim chance Abubakar is going to survive the process.

Tafawa Balewa has a total of 22,759 registered voters, according to figures released by INEC and the sum of the votes in the two elections show he is losing with a margin of 5,318. Will the governor escape by the skin of his teeth or is disaster looming for him?

Na to hand over to the governor-Elect na

Bauchi was never an APC state, buhari led APC governement, stole the people's mandate through rigging , snatching of ballot boxes and manipulation of election results.

Glad power has returned to the peoples party, The PDP.

He has lost already and I'd tell you why. Tafawa balewa LGA is predominantly PDP and it constitutes the largest population of Christians in the state and non indigenes as we have in some parts of lagos and these people have never voted any other party since 1999 apart from the PDP.

What is next? join the back(loser) seat

He should hand over to the governor-Elect, that's what next .

To go and rest na.

Real men of God are really powerful.
Mbaka said they aren't going to know how the election is conducted if no donation comes from them. And it just came to pass as crazily as he said it. I respect these men honestly I swear!

He should jejely handover himself to EFCC for prosecution over his numerous financial misappropriation.
