Bala Mohammed Denies VP Rumors, Focuses on Senate Bid
Bala Mohammed, the Governor of Bauchi State, has refuted rumors suggesting he would be involved in a vice-presidential candidacy alongside former President Goodluck Jonathan for the 2027 general elections. The speculation arose from claims circulating on social media about Jonathan's potential running mate from a faction of the People's Democratic Party (PDP).
Mohammed clarified that he remains focused on representing the Bauchi South senatorial district, contesting under the platform of the African People's Movement (APM). He urged the public to disregard the misleading reports and confirmed his commitment to the senatorial race.
This clarification follows his recent departure from the PDP amid ongoing leadership disputes within the party. Mohammed's statements were made via a post on social media platform X, where he emphasized his political ambitions and intentions for the upcoming elections.
