100 days: ‘How we defeated ex-Governor Abubakar’ ...
The Peoples Democratic Party in Bauchi State has said the people resolved to vote out ex-Governor Mohammed Abubakar, of the All Progressives Congress , for non performance.
State party Chairman Hamza Koshe Akuyam, who spoke during a media chat organised by Governor Bala Mohammed to mark his 100 days in office at the weekend, said besides non performance , the former governor was no indigene. The PDP chairman added that non-imposition of a candidate allowed delegates to choose freely among aspirants contesting the party’s ticket in the state.Read Also:Akuyam said the ability of PDP to select a credible candidate was also a factor.
“Now, the people of Bauchi know that there is a difference between a tenant and the landlord. A tenant does not repair the house he is renting. The former governor was a tenant, so, he could not work for the progress of Bauchi because he was a tenant, so we brought in the son of the soil and drove him out so that the people of Bauchi will have relief,” he said.
Speaking on the election of Mohammed as flag bearer, he said: “The first thing we did was we allowed delegates to freely choose among the contestants; the PDP did not impose any candidate …so the people were able to vote Bala Mohammed to be the candidate … going by his charisma and experience in politics.
