Bauchi PDP Endorses Bala Mohammed As National Chairman

The 20 local government Chairmen of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Bauchi State have endorsed the immediate past Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Senator Bala Mohammed, as the next national chairman of the party.

Speaking with journalists on Thursday in Bauchi, the spokesman of the 20 PDP chieftains, Bala Abdullahi Dan, who is also the party’s chairman in’Alakaleri’ local government, described the ex-minister as  a young, vibrant politician and founding member of the party who has remained committed to the party.

Dan said it was their desire that the position of the National Chairman of the PDP remained in the North-east, adding that  Muhammad, is the best man to succeed Ahmadu Adamu Mu’azu because he played a vital role during the 2015 PDP presidential campaign.

He argued that the bane of the PDP has been lack of internal democracy, which led to dictatorship as few leaders hijacked the party to the detriment of loyal members.

He explained that what the main opposition party needs to overcome the challenges ahead was to choose a national leader that would be guided by the ideals of the founders such as equity and justice.

“Our appeal is based on three facts:  Eligibility, sincere concern for the party and zeal to serve.  Bala Muhammed is a man who can move the party to the next stage of progress without rancour,  discrimination and other vices,”  he said.
