Governor Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed of Bauchi State has called on the newly elected officials of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the North-East to devise strategies to ensure the party’s success in the 2027 general elections. The governor made the call during the inauguration of the North-East Zonal Officials of the PDP at the zonal office in Bauchi on Monday, March 3, 2025.
Represented by his Deputy, Rt. Hon. Mohammed Auwal Jatau, Governor Mohammed criticized the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), claiming that the party has failed to live up to its promises and has only deepened the hardships faced by Nigerians. He emphasized that the APC must be voted out in the upcoming 2027 elections.
"The APC has failed in its years of governance in Nigeria. Rather than creating jobs, they have fostered more hardship. Instead of alleviating poverty, their policies have intensified the suffering of Nigerian families, leaving them to battle hunger and poverty," said Governor Mohammed.
He further pointed out that the inauguration of the North-East Zonal Officials marks the beginning of a concerted effort to restore the hopes, dreams, and aspirations of Nigerians, particularly those in the North-East. He encouraged the newly inaugurated officials to recognize the weight of their responsibility, calling on them to unite and lead the party toward reclaiming the future of Nigeria.
"This is a pivotal moment for us as a party, and for the country as a whole. The next election is not just about political power; it is about the future of our children, the security of our people, and the well-being of every Nigerian," he added. "We must ensure that the voices of the people are heard, their hopes revived, and their future secured."
Governor Mohammed also reiterated that the failure of the APC to provide basic necessities and leadership had left the nation in a dire state, but he expressed confidence that the PDP would offer an alternative leadership based on integrity, compassion, and a commitment to the people.
"Our mission is clear: we will not allow the dreams of our citizens to die under the weight of incompetence and mismanagement," he stated. "We are determined to lead Nigeria back to a path of progress, prosperity, and unity."
Congratulating the newly inaugurated officials, Governor Mohammed assured them of his administration’s full support in their efforts to bring about meaningful change. "You are the vanguard of change in this region. You must work tirelessly and collectively to achieve the desired objectives. Your success is our success, and together, we will build a better Nigeria."
In his response, the newly sworn-in North-East Zonal Chairman of the PDP, Babangida Umar, acknowledged the enormity of the task before them and promised to work diligently alongside his team to ensure the party's victory in the upcoming elections.
The event in Bauchi marks an important step in the PDP's preparations for the 2027 elections, as the party aims to unseat the APC and provide a leadership that better addresses the needs of Nigerians across the country.
