Bauchi Governor Says ADC Is His Preferred Political Platform

Governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed, has declared that the African Democratic Congress (ADC) is currently his preferred political platform, indicating a possible defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as political alignments begin ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The governor made this known while addressing journalists in Bauchi after a closed-door meeting with an ADC delegation led by former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir David Lawal.

According to Bala Mohammed, after wide consultations with his political associates and stakeholders, the ADC has emerged as the most acceptable platform for them. He noted that all options were initially open, including the All Progressives Congress (APC), but added that they could not remain in a place where they were not wanted.

He further stated that consultations with key stakeholders are still ongoing before a final decision on his political move is formally announced.
