The governor of Bauchi state, Muhammed Abubakar, took to Twitter early Tuesday morning to congratulate his arch-rival and winner of the the just concluded governorship election in the state, Bala Muhammed.
Governor Abubakar’s accepted defeat after he fought relentlessly through repeated polls and the court to avert the end of his government.
Earlier, when INEC was still collating the regenerated poll results of Tafawa Balewa local government, there were reports that Governor Abubakar had conceded the defeat. The governor quickly responded by denying the news. “I wish to congratulate my brother, Senator Bala Mohammed on this victory at the polls,” the governor’s tweet reads.
“Let me therefore invite the Governor-elect to join me in working out the process of a smooth transition.
