PDP Crisis: G-5 Govs To Storm Bauchi For Bala Campaign Flag-off by divinehand2003(m): 7:54am On Jan 02, 2023
Amidst efforts by some stakeholders to resolve the lingering crisis in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) ahead of the February 25 presidential poll, the G-5 governors are set to storm Bauchi State to flag off Governor Bala Mohammed’s campaign for a second term.



Daily Trust reliably gathered that following unresolved issues between Governor Bala and some politicians loyal to the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, the governor has decided to turn to the G-5 for succour.

The source, who is close to members of the Integrity Group, disclosed that barring any last-minute changes, the five aggrieved governors would fly to Bauchi to flag-off Bala’s campaign billed for Wednesday.

The source also said, “As I speak with you, the G-5 governors are ready to attend Bala Mohammed’s campaign flag-off in Bauchi. All arrangements have been concluded, and I can confirm that to you. Except any new development comes up which I do not envisage, the governors will be in Bauchi.”

The source also stated that the governors would move from Bauchi to Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, to also attend the campaign of one of their members, Governor Seyi Makinde, billed for Thursday, January 5.

Even though he has not openly declared his membership of the G-5 governors, Bala Mohammed has been having a running battle with Atiku Abubakar, accusing the PDP presidential candidate and his supporters of working against his re-election bid.



In a letter written to the national chairman of the party, Dr Iyorcha Ayu, dated November 3, 2022, Mohammed alleged that Atiku had threatened to “punish” him for contesting against him during the party’s presidential primary in May.

Bala had also threatened that if the issues were not resolved, “I may withdraw from the PCC and feel free to create new measures and strategies that would guarantee the election and re-election of all PDP candidates in Bauchi and myself.”

However, when contacted, the Chief Press Secretary to the Oyo State Governor, Taiwo Adisa, confirmed to Daily Trust: “Yes, I can confirm to you that all is set for the flag-off of his excellency’s campaign on Thursday.”

We’re not aware – Bauchi PDP

But the Bauchi State chapter of the PDP said it is not aware of the G-5 governors will attend the campaign flag-off of Governor Bala Mohammed.

In a phone chat with Daily Trust yesterday, the state publicity secretary of the party, who is also the spokesman of the campaign committee, Yayanu Zainabari said, “I cannot give you any assurance about their coming because I don’t have any information of whether they are coming or not.”

If this is true then Atiku is not coming across as a great leader and the bridge builder that he claims. He has autocratic tendencies which may be worst than Buhari. How can he approach the general election with so much controversy trailing him.

Some of these stories are not even logical. The writer claims that Atiku and his supporters are threatening to work against the re-election of Bala. Assuming but not conceding that this is true, how is this useful to Atiku or the PDP?

I cannot wait for this election to come and go.

I am already tired of too much election politics.

Politics without election is useless.

Beer Palour talk.

Bala Mohammed is not really a popular governor and may not win reelection. There are insinuations that Atiku has an understanding with the APC candidate in Bauchi state to support Atiku in the presidential election and Atiku will in turn support him two weeks later during the governorship election.

Bala Mohammed himself has refused to endorsed Atiku. When Buhari visited Bauchi for the groundbreaking of the oil well, Bala Mohammed said to everyone’s hearing that Bauchi is a Buharist state and they will vote for whoever Buhari says they should vote for. G-5 going to Bauchi to show support is a great statement that they are United against Atiku.

So you see, it’s more than beer parlor talk. It is high wire politics.

The problem in Bauchi is that, the APC Governorship candidate is the husband of Minister of Humanitarian Affairs. Atiku and the man are allies. With APC cabals and interest of power brokers, it's not certain Bala will be re-elected hence,the agitation.

Well, Bala will not just accept defeat like that. He will keep fighting till the end. Romancing the G-5 is his way of fighting back. I won’t be surprised if he works against Atiku. It’s all politics of interest.
