The Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed Vanguard (BAM-V) has described Friday’s Appeal Court verdict upholding the judgment of the Bauchi Governorship Election Petition that upheld the reelection of Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed as the validly elected governor of the state as a confirmation of the votes of the people of Bauchi state for good governance and progress.
This is as the youth group called on the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) in Bauchi state and its gubernatorial candidate in the March 18, 2023 governorship election in the state, Ambassador Saddique Baba Abubakar, to accept the verdict and join hands with Governor Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed in taking the state to greater heights.
This was contained in a press release signed by BAM-V Director-General, Comrade Mohammed Mohammed Jibo Abubakar, and made available to journalists in Abuja.
The group stated that, as a reward for his hard work in elevating the state, people of Bauchi state overwhelmingly voted for Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, Kauran Bauchi, in the March 18, 2023 governorship poll. The group added that the Appeal Court dismissal of the APC appeal is nothing but confirmation of the people’s verdict at the poll.
BAM-V stated that the overwhelming vote of the electorate in the state is a reward for Governor Mohammed’s craftsmanship in good governance, progress and development evidenced in the last four years of the governor’s stewardship in the state.
The group asserted that Bauchi state has never seen the level of development it is witnessing since 29th May, 2019 when Governor Mohammed assumed the mantle of leadership in the state.
While saying that the Appeal Court verdict is not only a well deserved victory for the governor, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the state, BAM-V called on the APC, its candidate and all well-meaning people of Bauchi state to join hands with the Governor Mohammed-led administration in the state with a view to taking the state to greater heights of development.
