Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State has asserted that he remains the most credible presidential aspirant on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to fly the party’s flag in the 2023 general election.
Mohammed made the assertion yesterday when he addressed PDP delegates at the party secretariat in Ibadan, Oyo State.
The aspirant said he was the best among the presidential aspirants in the party, adding that his antecedents and credentials speak volume.
He said the leaders of the PDP from the North would support whoever emerges as the party’s presidential candidate.
The governor said that PDP had, over the years, practiced power shift, calling on agitators of power shift to South not to see it as monopolistic.
“The power shift is not going to be monopolistic zoning, because zoning has been done many times in PDP and I told the delegates with humility,” he said.
Mohammed said the North believes it was its turn to maintain power and repudiation since the late President Umar Yar’Adua died two years in power.
